MarJon Beauchamp

After spending last season with the G League Ignite, Beauchamp was selected with the No. 24 overall pick in the 2022 Draft by the Bucks. With the Ignite, the 6-foot-6, 197-pound wing averaged 15.1 points on 51/27/72 shooting, 6.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals in 34.6 minutes. Despite a complicated path to the NBA - four different high schools and a community college stint before the G League - and a shaky jumper, Milwaukee targeted Beauchamp for his defense, athleticism and feel for the game. His size, which includes a 7-foot-1 wingspan, will allow him to switch at the NBA level, though a little more bulk would help against frontcourt opponents. Offensively, he's played enough guard to have a secure handle, and he knows how to make intelligent cuts off the ball. Beauchamp is also a great transition player, which will help while playing alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo. Beauchamp may need to spend more time in the G League again this season, as Milwaukee is focused on a title run and needs to give minutes to win-now players. Specifically, he'll be fighting against Pat Connaughton, Wesley Matthews and Thanasis Antetokounmpo for backup run. Injuries and rest days for veterans will presumably open up time here and there for the rookie, but it'll be surprising if he's an every-game player.
