Personal Narrative: My Fantasy Basketball Team

Improved Essays
Alright, fantasy basketball fans, it’s time for another one of my GF2 fantasy basketball team previews! Today, we’ll look at one of a young Milwaukee Bucks team who have a plethora of talented fantasy stars. Not only we’ll these players have Milwaukee in the mix in the Eastern conference, they’ll also help to guide your team to fantasy glory. From new Buck Greg Monroe to Khris Middleton, this Bucks squad is scary good!

So, here’s my 2015-16 Milwaukee Bucks fantasy basketball preview:

Khris Middleton, SG

This young Bucks offense will look to Middleton to be the go-to scoring option this season. Last year, he averaged 13.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.5 steals per game. Middleton averaged 30.1 minutes per game last year as well, allowing him plenty of time to fill up your fantasy stat sheets. In 2014, he shot a nice 85 percent from the

Last year, he averaged 12.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game. Parker also shot 49 percent from the field in 2014 and looks to be even more involved within the Bucks offense this season. He has yet to make his preseason debut this year, but coach Jason Kidd says that he has had a nice training camp.

In his rookie season last year, he was only able to play in just 25 regular season games before tearing his ACL, ending his season abruptly. So, in 2015-16 we do have to worry about that injury somewhat, but as of now Parker is fully healthy. One stat that I’d like to see him improve on his is free-throw shooting. Last season, Parker shot a disappointing 69 percent from the charity stripe. In mock drafts this off-season, I’ve seen Parker go as low the middle of the 9th Round, target him there and play him with confidence this season!

Fantasy Prediction for 2015-16

15.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.0 steals per

    Without Irving (who averaged 25 points per game in 2017) and his clutch late-game performances, James has to wonder whether he will have as sure of a road through the Eastern Conference, perhaps jeopardizing a potential eighth consecutive trip to the Finals.

    If you're a 6-foot tall point guard, opportunities for success in the NBA are limited. Most NBA executives think using a high draft pick on a player of short stature is a losing proposition. The fact that Isaiah Thomas was the 60th overall pick in his own draft says it all, really. Yogi Ferrell is another 6-foot prospect trying to carve out a successful NBA career. He did very well at the 2016 Las Vegas Summer League, averaging 8.8 points, 1.8 assists and 1.5 rebounds in four games with the Nets.…

    Throughout the last several years, the emergence of the point guard position in the NBA has been evident. The traditional "pass first" PG is slowly becoming more absent throughout the league. Point guards are rapidly improving from year to year and the position is very much as competitive as it has ever been in NBA history. Point guards are taking on more responsibility such as scoring the ball efficiently and more often, setting teammates up to score and defending at a high level. These guards are becoming more athletic which is essentially expanding their abilities to dominate.…

    Like all children all I ever wanted was to be big and do big people things. I engaged in a few family members that I would look up to and try everything they did. I use to pretend to go grocery shopping and being a parent at times. At the age of eight, I had worn the worst pain ever and that was watching my five, year old brother getting hit by a car while trying to cross the street riding a bicycle that had a loose chain. I remember him trying to get up and get to me, but a few adults that had witnessed the accident had told him to lay down.…
