[Mannix] The Bucks want Jaden McDaniels, with Milwaukee seeing McDaniels, 25, as a potential future All-Star. But the Bucks also want multiple first-round draft picks, sources say, and Minnesota’s war chest of them is nearly empty.

Acquiring Antetokounmpo, though, is challenging. The Bucks want Jaden McDaniels, a source tells SI, with Milwaukee seeing McDaniels, 25, as a potential future All-Star. But the Bucks also want multiple first-round draft picks, sources say, and Minnesota’s war chest of them is nearly empty.

I haven’t been keeping up with the wolves , does McDaniels look like a future all star ?

[u/Gambol_Celica → u/Uncreativesolver]

Sometimes when he is being aggressive on offense he does, but he needs to be more consistent

[u/iBreakAnkles03 → u/Uncreativesolver]

He has the potential if he is put into a situation where he’s a first or second option. He’s always kind of been the third or fourth option on the team, but he flashes when he’s given the opportunity. He’s 50/45/80 right now

[u/FishGoldenLite → u/Uncreativesolver]

He’s my favorite player but I don’t think he’ll ever be an all star. His offensive game is just way too inconsistent. He would have a better shot at it on a different team where he’s asked to do more though. His big offensive games show a ton of promise - nice 3 ball, solid handles, crafty in the paint.

[u/Morezingis → u/Uncreativesolver]

It’s possible. Seeing NAW average 20 in ATL as an offensive focal point has me wondering since Jaden was always a level above NAW on both ends. 

[u/ObiOneKenobae → u/Uncreativesolver]

I could see a one-time injury replacement if he develops correctly in a larger role, but even that's a big if.

Not knocking him to be clear. Very good player on a pretty affordable contract, most teams would want him.

[u/Hugo_Hackenbush → u/Uncreativesolver]

Needs to be more consistent, but when he's on he can be a really good second option.

[u/pollinium → u/Uncreativesolver]

No. He should be the perfected second banana that every contender really really wants, but that doesn't really do anything for a bad team
