The upcoming 2024-25 NBA season is going to be an uphill battle for the Milwaukee Bucks, especially since other contenders in the Eastern Conference got a lot better. Fortunately, two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo is doing the hard work this offseason, as seen in a recent video he posted.
As the Bucks gear up for the upcoming season, the addition of Gary Trent Jr. presents an exciting opportunity for the team, particularly in collaboration with Antetokounmpo. Known for his ability to draw defensive attention, the Greek Freak often finds himself double- or triple-teamed, which can create open looks for perimeter shooters. This dynamic has historically benefited players like Kyle Korver, Bryn Forbes, and Grayson Allen, who thrived alongside him.
Trent, boasting a career three-point shooting percentage of 38.6%, is poised to make the most of the space created by Antetokounmpo’s presence. Last season, he excelled with wide-open three-point attempts, hitting a respectable rate on the court. Now, with Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard, and Khris Middleton on the court, the shooting guard is likely to see even more opportunities to score.
The synergy between Antetokounmpo and Trent has the potential to elevate the Bucks’ offense significantly. Defenses will face constant dilemmas: if they collapse to contain the All-Star forward in the paint, they risk leaving Trent wide open for three-pointers. This partnership not only enhances Trent’s chances of achieving a career-high in shooting percentage but also positions him for a potential contract extension next offseason if he performs well.
