When the Milwaukee Bucks officials conducted an extensive interview with Will Barton at last week’s NBA pre-draft combine in Chicago, they may have revealed one of their goals heading into the June 28 draft.
“They told me they could use a big guard like me,†Barton said. “We’ll see what happens.â€
Indeed, while the Bucks have one of the most explosive backcourts in the league with Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings, both players are also undersized by NBA standards. Ellis stands 6-foot-3 and Jennings is 6-1.
Barton, who attended Memphis, was measured at 6-5 without shoes and 6-6 with shoes at the combine and is one of a spate of enticing big guards in this year’s draft.
