With 29.9 ppg, 5.8 apg and the 13.6 rpg to go with them, Milwaukee Bucks’ captain, Giannis Antetokounmpo was always going to be a must have player for us for the contest.

Marvin Williams comes in as well from the side while Chris Boucher will be our selection from Toronto Raptors. He has been quissential to the side turning over possession and winning the battle of the boards owing to his attribute as a defensive player.
