Giannis’ look at Cam Thomas after the dagger will have fans fired up

ByNBAUSA



Wednesday night, Milwaukee Bucks got back into the win column with a close win over the Orlando Magic in surprise fashion. The Bucks have shaken things up recently adding Cam Thomaswho recently parted ways with the Brooklyn Nets and will give Milwaukee an explosive shooter in the microwave.

That was on full display Wednesday in Orlando, as Thomas scored 34 points, including a string of his signature tough baskets, in the win. Thomas nailed a dagger three from a few feet behind the arc that drew a look of cold satisfaction from the star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was watching proceeding from the bench.

The Bucks recently surprised the NBA world by deciding to keep Antetokounmpo at the trade deadline despite the buzz surrounding the team, even though the star is currently sidelined with a calf ailment.

At this point, it’s unclear when, if at all, Antetokounmpo will return to the Bucks lineup, so players like Thomas should have plenty of opportunities to get shots in his absence.

Thomas has long been known as an impressive scorer dating back to his days with the Brooklyn Nets, where he had a penchant for knocking down tough baskets despite good defense.

There are certainly questions about Thomas’ own defense, as well as his ability to play within an organized structure on a winning team, but for now, he’s sure to electrify Bucks fans with his Kyrie Irving-esque shooting and competitiveness.

Meanwhile, some fans have floated the idea that the Bucks will sit Antetokounmpo until the end of the year in hopes of securing a blue-chip prospect in the upcoming draft, which could be enough to convince the star to stay long-term.

Either way, the Bucks will next take the floor Thursday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder
