Kane Pitman: No Giannis Antetokounmpo (personal/dad duties), Kyle Korver (back soreness) or George Hill (hamstring) tonight v Pacers. However, a Marvin Williams Bucks debut is on the cards.
A career 36.2 percent three-point shooter, Williams has been better than that since he really started launching from deep with regularity in 2013–14. He has connected on 37.6 percent of his threes over the last seven seasons, which happens to be the same percentage he is making this season. Although not an especially high-volume shooter from deep, over half of his field goal attempts this season are from beyond the arc. He is a stretchy forward, ever a welcome type on a Bucks team that attempts more threes than all but three teams in the league. He likes the corners in particular, and mostly avoids the mid-range.
Frank Madden: Marvin Williams’ prorated minimum deal will come with a cap hit of about $604k for the Bucks — thanks to @Jeff Siegel and the excellent @Jeff Siegel for doing the math. No threat of hitting the tax even if they were to sign more buyout guys.
