Positional Size: What’s old is new again, but can these Bucks deliver better results?

Jack Trehearne examines the Milwaukee Bucks' apparent strategic shift toward prioritizing positional size, a trend echoed by general manager Jon Horst's recent draft comments. Trehearne compares this current direction to former head coach Jason Kidd's tenure, where relying solely on oversized rosters without functional skills or proper scheme design ultimately led to ineffective results.

Trehearne argues that modern positional size requires players to possess actual positional traits, shooting, and sound schemes rather than mere height. He highlights current players like Ousmane Dieng while noting that Milwaukee's coaching and player development staff must ensure functionality across the floor to make this philosophy successful.
