More than a year into his tenure with the Milwaukee Bucks at this stage, D.J. Wilson remains an enigma for many reasons.
The 17th overall pick of the 2017 NBA Draft, Wilson’s rookie season was as limited as they come, seeing that he only notched 71 minutes of NBA action under his belt across 22 appearances. And as one could surmise from those numbers, the vast majority of Wilson’s appearances came when games were out of hand, regardless of whether it was in the Bucks’ favor or not.
As a result of that, the very few glimpses we’ve seen of Wilson getting extended action on the floor have come during the Bucks’ past two Summer League trips in Las Vegas, as well as with their recently established G League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd.
