The last few months have been ambivalent for Bucks shred Warriors”>Donte DiVincenzo. While he had asserted himself as a starter with the Bucks, in a “3&D” role, he injured his ankle in the first round of the playoffs and therefore had to watch his teammates win the title from the bench. , with his crutches.
Obviously, it was not easy to live for the former Villanova. And the following months were also delicate, since he worked to return to the field, within a team which brought in Grayson Allen to take on a role similar to his. Now back, but a bit rusty, he is therefore often cited in transfer rumors as the trade deadline approaches, especially as he is coming to the end of his rookie contract.
