With the final pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, the Milwaukee Bucks selected a promising young wing from Kentucky by the name of Chris Livingston.
The Bucks clearly liked Livingston leading up to the draft, and the feeling was mutual. The Athletic NBA insider Shams Charania reported that Livingston’s agent told teams not to take his client due to a potential draft promise in round two. Sure enough, Livingston was on the board at 58.
Milwaukee continued to show how much faith they have in Livingston by signing him to a historic rookie deal.
