NBA Draft 2018: 5 Biggest Winners

#5 Donte DiVincenzo

2018 NBA Draft

The Milwaukee Bucks landed themselves a real winner in this draft. Donte DiVincenzo was the best player on the biggest stage for the Vilanova Wildcats, leading them in the NCAA Tournament Final with a 31-point game. In 3 years of playing college ball, DiVincenzo made steady strides every single season, and finished this one averaging over 40% from 3-point territory.

Donte is a shooting guard who has superb athleticism and displayed significant playmaking ability in his final college season. The NBA Draft Combine held in May helped raise his profile significantly, as he recorded a standing vertical of a whopping 34 inches and tied first in the running vertical leap category at 42 inches. Do not be surprised if he decides to enter the Slam Dunk Challenge in the next few years.

Much of his skill is translatable at the NBA level and playing on a team with legitimate scorers and alongside one of the hardest-working players, league will only benefit him further, smoothing his progress curve in the future. DiVincenzo is a winner, and that matters most in the ultra-competitive NBA world.
