In the 2012 NBA Draft, Khris Middleton was selected 39th overall by the Detroit Pistons, whom he signed his rookie contract with just a few months later. He played just 27 games in his rookie year and averaged 6.1 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per game.

In 2013, Middleton was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks and since then, his career has only skyrocketed.

The 2014-15 season was Middleton’s first-ever playoff appearance.

In the 2018-19 season, Middleton was selected as an NBA All-Star. 

Devastatingly, Middleton suffered a season-ending injury during the 2021-22 season and has since been working through an incredible comeback.

Over the past 12 years, Middleton has earned 12,343 points, 3,522 rebounds, 2,876 assists, and 859 steals throughout this career.

Middleton is without a doubt the greatest NBA player who balled for the Texas A&M Aggies.
