Bucks still have doubts over Khris Middleton

The Milwaukee Bucks finished the 18-19 season with the NBA's best regular-season record, and Khris Middleton played a major role in the team's success. The 27-year-old averaged 18.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists per game, while also making his first All-Star appearance.

The Bucks tied Middleton down to a five-year, $178 million contract earlier this month, although Ric Bucher of Bleacher Report is reporting that the Bucks still have doubts over Middleton's ability to become a second-star:

There are questions about whether he (Middleton) can be the second-best player on a championship-caliber team, which is what his salary now demands. The Bucks, a league source says, had that same doubt.
Milwaukee head into the 19-20 season with the reigning MVP in Giannis Antetokounmpo. However, the team will need a second star to step up and help Antetokounmpo in the postseason.
