30 days / 30 teams: MILVAUKEE BUCKS

The emotion of a bronze medal with Greek is the soul and Giannis Antetokounpo It will return to your Visconsin routine. The Double MVP will be a search of Milvaukee, where it will play its 13. season. In 30 years, the “Greek freak” remains a statistical and indisputable leader. But he is no longer a warranty for victories, his bucks now have a series of frustrating seasons …

The third elimination in a series in the first round marked the injury to the main player, Damian Lillard. Point Guard won’t play upcoming season and was sacrificed that the franchise would be competitive. But the time has expired, and Giannis Antetokoun Emo is no longer officially part of the future as in the past.

The interior repeats it again and again: only the victory is interested. For now, it means to wear a dollar uniform. But Knicks are in the back of the mind. So, more than ever, Milwaukee must recover this status of the actual outsider for the title, four years after the title 2021. Years. Without Damian Lilllard as another star to support Giannis Antetokounpo, the leaders had to be creative.

An all-star contract Point Guard is smoothed over time to maintain small financial flexibility. Miles Turner He was embedded by Pejčan to succeed in Brook Lopez under the circle. An interesting supplement, which meets the need for the space and covering the circle offered by Brook Lopez, but with several years less. Miles Turner, however, remains a lieutenant more than the right side of the man, and Giannis Antetokounpus will wear offensive team responsibilities on his wide shoulder.

Milwaukee also counts a lot on the jump Kyle Kuzma, too shy Since its arrival during the last season (14.5 points, 33.3% in 3-points, and as much as 5,8 points at 34.3% in playoff against Peigras).

Like Kyle Kuzma, the Bucks front office looked this summer for players who were able to expand the show and Enjoy the spaces created by Greek In the attack. Gary Trent Jr was extended on a knoblink price, beautiful catch after his very good batch against secure (18.8 points at 50% behind the port), just like Taurian Prince (38.4% away in career) and Rian Rollins (40.8% in 2024-2025). The latter should compete in minutes with their heads Kevin Porter Jr, Interesting from your transfer to Milwaukee In February and Cole AnthonyOne of the main flight recruits. Target contributions that, on paper, do not push the dollar to a new dimension.

Summer movements

Arrivals: Thanasis Antetokounpo, Cole Anthoni, Gary Harris, Mark Sears (two-way), Miles Turner

Departures: Pat Connaueton, Damian Lillard, Brook Lopez, Vasily Micic

Player that follows: Giannis Antetokunpo

Above 30 points on average for the third consecutive season, at the Petal Podium of Voices for the fifth time in seven seasons … Giannis Antetokounpus could do more to take Doreva to the tops of the East. However, that is the task, not far from Hercules, who awaits him this season.

“Greek freak” no longer has all the stars aside, something that was only once in career, 2014/15. At that time, it was just a project, which almost no one saw him reach such a level. It is up to him to hope for the entire franchise vacation. A franchise that struggles to offer conditions and stability to achieve their star goals.

Giannis Antetokounpm no longer hides its growing impatience after several years of failure. And if it remains extremely reliable, it was not enough to be found among the East Elite. Can Miles Turner, Bobby Portis and Kyle Kyle are enough to convince him to apply long-term? It really is not sure, and the next few months promise that it will be crucial for one of the main stars of the league …

Average age: 27.5 years

PAIROLL: $ 180.8 million (25th)

Ideal scenario

Jrue Holiday, then Khris Middleton and now Brook Lopez: News on the title 2021. gradually gradually swallowed Milwaukee. This clear position has had credit redistribution and responsibilities … for Entrust even more Giannis Antetokounpo. The Greek interior remains one of the most recent players in the league, which is able to wash all the defenses into pieces, especially with the middle of a footage that has become accurate (43.9% of successes taken between 5 meters and 3-points in 2024/25).

The real playmaker of the composition, it can count on the composition full of shooters to take advantage of its fixations and punished opponents. Enough to find the Top 4 Eastern Conferences, weakened injuries. Enough to satisfy Giannis Antetokounpo to Playoffs, hoping not only to play Sidekick …

The worst scenario

We should rather talk about scenarios in plural. It would first consist of a repeated finding of the last opus, with a measured hope that arrive in playoffs and fast, glorified elimination that could persuade Giannis antetokounpo that his future was no longer written in Visconsin. Another, more extreme, would see Greek suffering after a hard summer and the first part of the exercise that must be in the oven and mill. Without his “Greek language,” his missed games in the last four seasons and his two campaigns from 2023 and 2024 were concluded in the infirmary, the beech would probably break in the table.

And there is, not necessarily gently amazing, where Milwaukee would not suffer a fairer fate, but would just not be at the level of East or NBA. Porter – Trent JR – Anthony – Green – Rollins – Harris Back Lines offer very few production and consistency guarantees. Kyle Kuzma still has everything to prove in the role of another offensive option for the ambitious team.

So many reasons for concern that could see the Bucks slowly slide towards the play area, again at risk of distracting their star player’s designs or even pushes it to quickly request his transmission.
