There were just two minutes left in Game 2 against the Toronto Raptors when, with the Milwaukee Bucks down by three, Giannis Antetokounmpo tossed the ball to Thon Maker, got it back, checked the shortening shot clock as it wound down to under four seconds, and pulled the trigger on the three-point attempt.
This season has seen young Bucks step up in a number of ways. Rookies currently occupy two of the starting positions. Not a single starter is over 25, and four are still on their rookie deals. While they might not be savvy veterans, these young Bucks aren’t ones to shy away from big time shots, though.
