A little more than two weeks after officially arriving to join the Milwaukee Bucks, Marvin Williams has wasted no time in finding his place within his new team.
To say the 33-year-old has been thrown to the fire under head coach Mike Budenholzer would be a little bit of a stretch, but Williams has been Budenholzer’s go-to reserve forward behind superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, especially in the Bucks’ high-profile wins over the Philadelphia 76ers and the Toronto Raptors.
That has subsequently downsized the role of fellow veteran forward Ersan Ilyasova, who logged DNP-CD’s in each of those games.
