There’s a lot to like about MarJon Beauchamp. The Milwaukee Bucks clearly agree, enough to use their first round pick in the NBA Draft to select him at 24th overall. Running up to the draft, there was much speculation about general manager Jon Horst’s intentions with the pick, and many of us expected him to trade down to extract more value and refill the future draft capital that the Bucks sorely lack.
It doesn’t appear that Beauchamp expects to be moved in the coming weeks, and based on how highly Horst and Milt Newton spoke of him, we shouldn’t expect Beauchamp to do anything but travel to Milwaukee and prepare for Summer League.
