Milwaukee Bucks – Freakish length

It would be tough to classify the Milwaukee Bucks as a “good” NBA team right now, but they are certainly quite interesting. Giannis Antetokounmpo headlines the assets in Milwaukee, as a the “Greek Freak” has transformed into a triple-double machine that can do just about anything on a basketball floor.

In addition to Giannis, the Bucks have many other assets that provide ridiculous length and athleticism. Jabari Parker is the offense-first forward that was a justifiable number two overall pick, Khris Middleton is the best shooter but also provides real length defensively, and that doesn’t even get into John Henson and others in supporting roles.

Now, add Kevin Durant to the mix.

Durant is perhaps best known for his length and overall stature, and that allows him to shoot over the outstretched arms of anyone in the NBA. Defensively, he would fit right in with Jason Kidd’s plans to switch everything and basically play position-less basketball, and Durant would bring much-needed space to the table on offense.

It would be a tough sell for Milwaukee to theoretically land a player of Durant’s stature, but there would be enough around him to make it at least somewhat appealing.
