The 2020-21 NBA season ended with the Milwaukee Bucks lifting the Larry O’Brien after a magnificent performance from the team in the 2021 NBA Playoffs. Giannis Antetokounmpo was named NBA Finals MVP after his unique effort in the deciding series against the Phoenix Suns. Now, the team’s front office must work to keep the team playing at the highest basketball level.
Questions surrounded the Milwaukee Bucks before entering the NBA Playoffs, with coach Mike Budenholzer even being in the hot seat, according to some media outlets. The team has shifted the narrative and should be able to continue its quest to championships in the future.

Green’s arrival could be great as he’s been efficient in his role over the last few seasons and it could also make sense from a financial standpoint. Green’s been playing under the veteran’s minimum salary for the last few seasons and the trend might continue if he wants to continue playing for NBA title contenders.
Last year, he averaged 11 points per game with 49/41/77 shooting splits.
#2 P.J. Tucker remains in Milwaukee on a two-year deal
