After being drafted 36th overall by Milwaukee back in 2005, the 6-foot-10 Turk played for a bunch of teams before signing back with the Bucks in July of 2018. He missed a stretch of games early on after breaking his nose during practice in the month of December.

During the 2018-19 regular season, Ersan appeared in 67 games (7 of which he started) and scored an average 6.8 points per game - which turned out to be his lowest production with any team since his rookie year (minimum 50 games played).

Other aspects of his game exhibited averages of 4.5 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.3 blocks per game, clearly falling short of the league-leading Bucks standards.

He couldn't amp up his offence during the postseason as well, shooting a subpar 30% from beyond the arc and 43% (in around 5.5 shot attempts per game) from the field. This was the 6th playoff appearance of his career, and his 6.8 ppg along the 15 games was the lowest thus far.
