Receiver Laquon Treadwell arrived in Minnesota via the first round of the draft  Authentic Adrian Peterson Jersey , to an offense that had an old-school Cowboys play ready for him to run and a quarterback who needed the accuracy buffer zone provided by Treadwell's big body. Things haven't worked out well through two seasons for Treadwell, but things could be changing this year.

On their first depth chart of the year, the Vikings show Treadwell and Kendall Wright as the second-string receivers behind entrenched starters Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs. The initial, unofficial hierarchy puts Treadwell in position to potentially prove himself, especially in the preseason.

Behind Treadwell and Wright are Stacey Coley and Brandon Zylstra, an intriguing prospect who led the CFL in receiving last year with 1,687 yards on 100 catches.

With Jarius Wright and Michael Floyd gone, someone needs to step up and provide options beyond the starters  Authentic Oscar Lindberg Jersey , who will get the bulk of the attention. Maybe it will be Treadwell, who necessarily faces a now-or-never third season in the NFL.

Treadwell had 20 catches for 200 yards in 2017, appearing in all 16 games. He had no postseason receptions.

Donte DiVincenzo's dad can dust off the old Milwaukee Bucks jerseys he used wear as a fan while he was growing up.

DiVincenzo will be able to hook his father up with some new gear soon, too.

The Villanova guard was formally introduced Monday in Milwaukee at the Bucks' downtown training facility. The team drafted him last week in the first round with the 17th overall pick.

The 6-foot-5 DiVincenzo gives the Bucks another 3-point shooter with size and toughness in the backcourt, skills that should fit well with All-Star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo's game.

The No. 9 Bucks jersey with DiVincenzo's name on the back will soon become the prized piece in the jersey collection belonging to his father, John. An old Ricky Pierce jersey was a favorite.

"I was seen in a Bucks jersey in Philly in my later years. I had mustard all over me. I don't know if you're familiar with how they roll there," the elder DiVincenzo said with smile at the Bucks' downtown training facility.

His son gets a clean start in the NBA following a distinguished college career.

DiVincenzo was a key member off the bench for Villanova's national championship team, scoring 31 points and hitting 5 of 7 from 3-point territory in the title game against Michigan  Henry Anderson Jersey , along with five rebounds, three assists and two blocks. The Big East's sixth man of the year also impressed at the combine with his 42-inch vertical leap, displaying athleticism that scouts crave.

A willingness to come off the bench and succeed in that role helped set him apart.

"It's just something that's pretty unique to have a young man who's willing to do that and make those sacrifices," Milwaukee coach Mike Budenholzer said. "I think Donte will learn, whatever role it is, however it plays out."

DiVincenzo said the adjustment to the pros should be easy after showing that he could thrive as a reserve in college.

"Just because I'm not coming in here with an ego. I'm not coming in here as the main guy on the national championship team," he said. "I'm just coming in here wanting to work, I just want to fit in. That's my goal."

That goal also includes fitting in with Antetokounmpo. DiVincenzo knows he must play hard and with energy with the high-flying forward  Le'Raven Clark Jersey , and knock down 3s to help open the floor.

"Just being able to knock down shots and him being able to look to his left and right and know I'm defending," DiVincenzo said.

Playing defense will be the quickest way for DiVincenzo to earn time in a crowded backcourt rotation. After showing a willingness in college to hustle and dive for loose balls, that shouldn't be a problem. It's just the way that he learned to play, said his father, who also coached middle-school basketball.

"I watched the young man grow up," John DiVincenzo said. "Diving on the floor is a norm for him."

The elder DiVincenzo was so fond of Milwaukee that he asked his son to bring home some Bucks gear after traveling to Wisconsin for a pre-draft workout. DiVincenzo brought home a white, long-sleeved Bucks shirt.

His excited and grateful father packed that same shirt with him as the family accompanied DiVincenzo for his first trip to Milwaukee as a member of the Bucks .

"I'm like, `Dad  Morgan Cox Jersey , you're probably going to get gear,"' DiVicenzo recounted. "He's like, `I don't care."'

Note: The team's new arena is 98 percent completed, according to team and construction officials. The Bucks will start playing in the new arena this fall. "This is all about the details now for the next few weeks," team President Peter Feigin said.
