The bench of the Milwaukee Bucks is full of energetic players, but Pat Connaughton is a name many outside of Milwaukee may be unfamiliar with. At least, they may have been until very recently. The guard is most famously known for his 44-inch vertical that allows him to throw down some highlight reel level dunks, but fans might not know much else about him.
Recently coming off a painful defeat in the NBA Dunk Contest, Connaughton is a name NBA fans are getting more acquainted with, and for all the right reasons. The guard brings a certain level of intensity every single time he steps onto the court and has been doing just that in his past several appearances.
