Basketball Fans Excited About Drew Timme Landing With Bucks
Despite his incredible success at the college level, Gonzaga’s Drew Timme did not hear his name called during Thursday night’s NBA draft. It didn’t take too long for him to find a professional hoops home, however.
Early Friday morning, Shams Charania reported that Timme is signing with the Bucks. As an undrafted free agent, there are certainly no guarantees for the three-time All-American, but Milwaukee makes for an intriguing landing spot for him if he manages to carve out a role with the team.
Timme has plenty of work to do, but could find himself playing alongside the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez in the frontcourt. Basketball fans who loved watching Timme lead Gonzaga over the last few seasons are excited about his opportunity.
Timme’s athleticism is a question mark as he enters the pros, but as he showed at Gonzaga, he’s an extremely skilled post player and a proven winner.
If nothing else, he’ll have plenty of Bulldogs fans and other college hoops diehards rooting for him as he attempts to break onto Milwaukee’s roster.
