Another great week from the Bucks, 2-0 and two fairly easy wins. Thirty wins before the All-Star break which is more than a lot of fans(myself included)predicted for the year. So many guys played well, hard to see a clear-cut winner.

1. OJ Mayo-A pretty good week for OJ, he led the team in scoring, one of 6 guys who averaged in double figures. In the 2 games he played 24.55 mpg, averaged 18 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 3 apg, and 1.5 tpg. He shot 8-18 on 2s(44.4%),2-6 on 3s and 14-15(93.3%) on FTs giving him a 58.8 TS%, showing what getting to the line can do for your TS%

2. John Henson-So the Bucks are 7-1 when Henson starts,he's looked pretty good. He played 23.5 mpg, averaged 11 ppg, 5 rpg(really needs to get this up), 3.5 bpg, and 1.5 tpg. He shot 9-17(52.9%)and was 4-4 on FTs which gives him a 58.6 TS% on the week. His FT% is up to 69.8 on the season after finishing at 51.4% last season.

3. Jared Dudley-Two steady games for Dudley, huge in the Nets win with 5-5 from deep. In the 2 games he played 32.5 mpg, averaging 14 ppg, 3.5 rpg, 2 apg, 2 spg and 1 tpg. Jared shot 4-8 on 2s, 5-6(83.3)on 3s and was a perfect 2-2 from the line. His TS% for the week was an okay 88.2%.

4. Khris Middleton-Another in a string of solid weeks for Middleton, seems to be getting more consistent. In the 2 games Khris played 29.5 mpg, scored 16.5 ppg, averaged 7 rpg, 2 apg, 3 spg and 0 tpg. He shot 12-22 on 2s(54.5%), 1-4 on 3s(25%)and was 6-6 from the line, giving him 57.6 TS for the week.

5. Giannis Antetokuonmpo-Giannis came down to earth a bit after his great week but was still very solid in all aspects of the game. In the 2 games he averaged 34 mpg, 12.5 ppg, 8 rpg, 5 apg, 0.5 bpg, 2.5 spg and 2.5 tpg. He shot 8-16 on 2s(50%), 0-2 on 3s(one was a heave, don't remember the other, and was 9-11from the line(81.8%). This gave Giannis a 54.7 TS% which is incredible for a guy who took as many mid-range jumpers as he did.

6. Brandon Knight-BK had a poor shooting game vs. the Nets but helped the Bucks put away the Kings igniting a 21-5 run that gave Milwaukee a pretty good cushion heading into the fourth. In the 2 games he averaged 14 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 5 apg and had 2.5 tpg. He shot 6-15 from 2(40%), 4-11 from 3(36.4%) and was 4-6 (66.7%)from the line. His TS% ended up at 48.9%
