2. Milwaukee Bucks

The main reason the Bucks would draft Jackson is to replace Tony Snell. Snell is a restricted free agent and replacing him with Jackson may be a great call. Jackson brings more scoring than Snell and could add to the length defensively that the Bucks love to exploit against other teams.

The Bucks do love what Snell brings, and they may not move on from him. If they were to do so, Jackson would be a great replacement.

Plus, they drafted another upperclassman in Malcolm Brogdon last year and that turned out well for them.
