Doc Rivers just stumbled into the answer to Milwaukee's bench problems, and it came from the two guys he's been ignoring all season. Because Andre Jackson Jr. and Jericho Sims just showed what happens when you prioritize energy and athleticism in a league where those things matter more than ever.
Against the Detroit Pistons, Jackson logged 29 minutes and put up 6 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 steals on 2-of-6 shooting including a three-pointer. Sims, for his part, poured in 6 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, a steal, and a block in his time.
The Bucks lost 116-129, but it feels like they might have found something with Jackson and Sims.
