The Bucks have a separation-of-powers problem

Not four years ago, the Bucks had an elite on-court product, massively spurred by stability and synergy from ownership on down.

Rapid Recap: Bucks 116, Magic 108

Milwaukee Bucks Poll: How did the Bucks do at the deadline?

Six days ago, as anxiety was about as high among the fanbase as I can remember, it became clear the Bucks were not going to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo. This didn’t come as a surprise.

Before Thursday’s trade deadline, a rumor last week linked the Bucks with former Nets guard Cam Thomas, primarily from HoopsHype’s Mike Scotto. While the contract isn’t public yet, usually post-deadline signings are for the veteran’s minimum, which would be about $905k for Thomas over the remainder of the year.

Bucks waive Nigel Hayes-Davis

Jon Horst and the Bucks front office have decided to waive journeyman Nigel Hayes-Davis, who got another shot in the NBA this season with the Phoenix Suns after a long and successful career overseas. Hayes-Davis, a wing-forward combo, actually would have fitted a position of need for the Bucks. But at 31 years old and […]
