Kevin Porter Jr. must recapture elite skill to excel in likely Bucks role

With Giannis Antetokounmpo likely to take on a significant chunk of the ball-handling duties for the Milwaukee Bucks this coming season, he needs adequate shooting around him. Likely to start at the point guard spot with Damian Lillard gone, Kevin Porter Jr. must be a consistent shooter, especially in catch-and-shoot situations, where he's excelled before.

It's no surprise that the catch-and-shoot specialists placed around Giannis Antetokounmpo typically tend to get a nice payday the following season. Bryn Forbes. Malik Beasley. Soon to be AJ Green (hopefully). It's because those players tend to have some of the best shooting seasons of their careers due to how many open looks they get from Giannis.
