When Taurean Prince came to the Milwaukee Bucks, the expectation was that he would serve as the backup to Khris Middleton. He acknowledged this himself on an episode of 'Run Your Race' prior to the start of last season, highlighting his desire to provide the Bucks with security off the bench. Well, that didn't go according to plan.
Prince started in 73 of his 80 regular season showing last season, largely due to Middleton battling through injuries before being traded. With questions at the small forward spot, many wondered if he would reclaim that role once again, but Doc Rivers has pushed back on that.
