This year's draft is supposedly deeper than 2019. Not nearly as many talented bigs on the radar for 2019. Spellman may want to return to Nova, improve his draft stock the same way Hart, Bridges and Brunson have done.
The Bucks won't have a shot at Bridges, but I wouldn't mind DiVincenzo or Brunson at 17.

Another solid mock draft:

A draft prospect that would unseat Giannis for best name on the team:
"You can safely assume the Bucks will renew their search for quality 3-point shooters this summer via the draft, free agency or trade. In fact, the Bucks already have shown interest in Abudushalamu Abudurexiti, a sharp-shooting 6-foot-9 small forward from China. Abudurexiti has been flying under the radar and isn’t likely to appear on any mock drafts. But several NBA teams are well aware of him, including the Bucks. They, along with a handful of teams, recently observed Abudurexiti working out in Phoenix."

An interesting interview with Mo Wagner. He is consistently projected as a 2nd round pick. I think he would be a steal in the 2nd round. I wonder how he would be viewed if he was a European prospect. Size (6'11"), ability to shoot the three (39% last season) and a good passer out of the post. Defense and ball-handling need some work.

NBADraft.Net, The Ringer and SI with updated mock drafts this week. Some interesting Bucks picks....Omari Spellman, Melvin Frazier and Zhaire Smith. Spellman's height/wingspan combo of 6'9.25"/7'2" coupled with his shooting ability is intriguing. I also thought he displayed better defense in the NCAA tournament compared to the regular season.

This draft has DDV going to the Clippers at #12 (the guy I want the Bucks to get), but it has Huerter going to the Bucks at #17. If DDV goes that high, I'd be happy with Huerter.
I think both of those guys have the skill set (3 and D) that the Bucks need.
