Milwaukee Bucks: Top heavy bench three-point shooting is worrisome

Since reigning Coach of the Year Mike Budenholzer came along, the Milwaukee Bucks’ motto has been “Let it Fly”. They have certainly been delivering on it all across their roster too.

The Bucks’ bench leads the league in three-point attempts with 16.5 per game. Connecting on 6.1 of these shots, Milwaukee’s bench does rank second in the league in made threes per game, only behind the Washington Wizards at 6.8 per game.

Currently, the Milwaukee bench also ranks in ninth place in the league when it comes to 3-point percentage, averaging 36.7 percent.

A major factor in that has been the contributions of sixth man George Hill, who leads the entire league in three-point efficiency at 53 percent.
