Milwaukee Bucks backup center must continue to be part of the rotation

In somewhat of a surprising turn of events this season so far, Jericho Sims has moved from a deep bench role to a focal point of Doc Rivers' rotation with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Since Giannis Antetokounmpo went down with a calf injury on December 3, Rivers has leaned heavily on Sims to fill the void in the frontcourt. While the results have been mixed, the "Jericho Sims Experiment" has become one of the most talked-about storylines for a Bucks team that is fighting to stay afloat in the Eastern Conference without their superstar.

The bottom line is that Jericho Sims has made the most of his opportunity so far this season.
