Complete 2018 NBA Draft grades for all 30 teams
Milwaukee Bucks
- No. 17: Donte DiVincenzo, Villanova
The Milwaukee Bucks continue to love that length, and snagging Donte DiVincenzo at No. 17 feels like a good fit for both parties.
Though he burst onto most people’s radars with a 31-point detonation in the NCAA championship game, DiVincenzo was a reliable contributor for the Villanova Wildcats all year long. He’s got eye-popping athleticism, can shoot the rock, can put it on the floor and showed out well at the NBA Draft Combine.
Donte DiVincenzo to the Bucks is a solid fit. Remember what Mike Budenholzer did for Kyle Korver's career, and then remember that DiVincenzo also had a 42-inch vertical at the combine.

In Milwaukee, new head coach Mike Budenholzer will know how to use him off the bench. Though he’s got the size of a point guard and is a bit of a quick-trigger shooter from deep, the thought of Giannis Antetokounmpo feeding him wide open looks from 3 is tantalizing.
