The Milwaukee Bucks catapulted themselves into the upper echelons of the NBA last season, finishing with the league's best record.

While they failed to translate that dominance into a ring, their team remains one of the strongest on paper heading into next season.

Their most pressing concern is trying to retain the core of their 60-win team. Khris Middleton, Malcolm Brogdon, Nikola Mirotic and Brook Lopez are all entering free agency this season and the Bucks would ideally like to retain each one of them.

They do not have the cap space to make any significant upgrades, so the 30th pick could be used to draft someone who really fits into the team and strengthens their rotation rather than fulfilling a particular positional need.

Ideal targets in the draft would be the likes of LSU’s Naz Reid, UCF’s Tacko Fall and Florida State's Mfiondu Kabengele.
