Giannis Antetokounmpo is already a talented shooter, but he's working on developing his ability even more with his new teammate Kyle Korver.

The 2018-19 MVP told reporters Tuesday after the Bucks' first day of training camp at the University of Wisconsin that he's taking some pointers from Korver, who signed with Milwaukee in free agency after mulling retirement at the end of last season following the Jazz's elimination from the playoffs in the first round.

"It's really important [that] I always try to talk to him a little bit," Antetokounmpo said of Korver (via ESPN). "And he's a great guy. He's not trying to get in your head or overstep and talk too much to you. Whenever he gives me tips, I always try to listen ... one of the best shooters to ever play the game.

"He's definitely going to help this team, but he's definitely going to help a lot of players develop their shooting ability."

Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer also gave Korver credit for his professionalism and said he's excited to work with the forward.

"His work ethic and attention to detail is just gonna help all of us, including me as a coach" Budenholzer said. "I always say that about Kyle: He makes me a better coach. Adding him to our group was a huge add this summer."

Korver, who is entering his 17th season in the league at age 38, said he struggled at times last season but still loves the game.

"I was beat up at the end of last season and I didn't feel like I was able to play the way that I wanted to, so I just didn't want it to be like that again," Korver said. "But I still love the game. I still love competing and I still feel like I can offer something.

"So as long as my family can do it, I want to keep going."

The Bucks finished last season atop the Eastern Conference with a 60-22 record. They made it to the conference finals, but lost to the Raptors in six games.
