The new Milwaukee Bucks signing has a big season on his hands and seems to have stayed just fine as he fills the void Bryn Forbes' departure created. Grayson Allen has recovered from a lukewarm rookie season with the Utah Jazz, going on to define his game the past two seasons with the Memphis Grizzles. The shooting guard is one of the best shot makers on the team, posting 107 three-pointers over the last season. In his 88 games for the Grizzlies, he recorded a 43.6 field goal percentage.

G-money is one of the best shooters on the Milwaukee Bucks roster, with his 173 field goals placing him in the top end when compared to the players on the Bucks roster last season.


#2 Jrue Holiday

Jrue Holiday will be hoping to continue his good form for the champions in the new season. He scored the third-highest points on the Milwaukee Bucks roster (1,046) and showed he was still on song in the season’s opener against the Nets.

He scored 111 three-pointers for the Milwaukee Bucks and finished the previous season as the third-highest in three-pointers. Roping in an average of 1.9 three-pointers per game, with a three-point accuracy of 39.2%. He was the third-highest player for field goals scored, with 414, while posting a 50.3 field goal percentage, only bettered by Giannis Antetokounmpko and Bobby Portis.


#1 Khris Middleton

Khris Middleton is arguably the second-most important contributor to the Milwaukee Bucks’ championship run after Antetokounmkpo. The small forward ranks as the best shooter on the Bucks' 2021-22 roster, his consistent ability to hit long-range shots, setting him apart from the rest.

The forward ended many fast breaks with his shots, as evidenced in the playoffs rounds where he played some of his best games. He scored the team's second-highest points last season, also ranking in the second-highest three-pointers, with 151. He recorded a 41.4% three-points accuracy, netting 2.2 times in 5.4 attempts, leading the team in three-points per game.

He registered the team's second-most field goals, netting 511 shots and making at least 15.8 shots per game.


Other honorable mentions

Milwaukee Bucks youngsters Jordan Nwora and Talisman Giannis Antetokounmpko are two of our players that missed out on the list by a whisker, both of which are testaments to the amount of shooting talent on the roster.

Antetokounmpo has evolved from posting average returns from free throws and shooting from range, rising into one of the best players in the league for both metrics. Whilst Nwora showed glimpses of his scoring talent in the final match of the regular season. Nwora scored a career-best 34 points, making 14 of his 23 field shots, and if the first game of the season against the Brooklyn Nets is any pointer, the Milwaukee Bucks are only just getting started.
