The Milwaukee Bucks were the embodiment of bold predictions last season. What will they accomplish in the 2019-20 NBA season?

The Milwaukee Bucks can do anything next season. That’s the beauty of the preseason, when the highest of heights are still possible, as are the lowest of lows. Fans of the Bucks can be as optimistic or as pessimistic as they want before the games are played for the 2019-20 NBA season.
