. SF. Oregon. Troy Brown Jr.. 17. player. 89

Brown provides ample versatility on both ends, something the Bucks can embrace. He’s another capable ball handler next to Giannis Antetokounmpo and Eric Bledsoe, while his athleticism should make him an effective cutter.

On the defensive end, Brown has the length and strength needed to defend three or four different positions. He flew under the radar a bit at Oregon, but has one of the higher defensive ceilings in this draft given his instincts and physical tools.

Decision-making is a question mark for Brown, but not too many wings can handle the ball and create for others effectively. He’s the kind of high-upside pick that makes sense mid-first round.
