5 Free Agents I Want on the Milwaukee Bucks – Realistic Targets

the NBA free agency is right around the corner and the Milwaukee Backs have the chance to make some great signings to raise their potential to the 2526 season let’s discuss five realistic players I think they should target first one is Bruce Brown a player I feel people have forgotten about since he won the championship with Denver in 2023 after that he signed a big contract with the bases but he didn’t really fit there so he was traded to Toronto in the Pascalam trade and he have been relegated to a super secondary role since then he ended last season in New Orleans after the Brandon Ingram trade and I think given the right context he might be a super important player in our championship team he was in Denver his defense was great and he’s a very smart player he has some off ball instinct so he’s always in the right spot and he fits very well next to a player who is handing the ball and is a good passer and a good rider and can create advantages for this kind of player so I think he could fit pretty nice next to Janice janice is a great passer he makes defenses collapse next to him and he hasn’t really have a partner who likes to cut and gets the ball moving to the rim so he can finish with a laya for a dunk and Brown can be that kind of player while he can have an impact on defense he can be a transition player so I think the backs might want to take a look at that he has a suboptimal three-point shooting let’s put it that way but he can still score if he’s not respected by the defense and I think the other things he does in the court clearly make up for that clay got right to him because of his quick release down the lane bruce Brown lays it in the thing with Brown is I don’t really know what to expect about his free agency i don’t really know how much our team is going to put on the table for him i don’t know how much he expects to sign like he was paid 23 million last year and he didn’t really match that level so it’s pretty clear he’s not going to reach that salary again but we don’t really know how low is it going to get and if the bucks are going to be able to match the offers he’s going to get that said I think his skill is worth considering and the Bucks should really try this one because I feel like this is the kind of player that can really shine in this kind of environment bounces the pass inside and driving and dunking is Bruce Brown second one is Santi Alama who is admittedly probably the most unrealistic one we’re going to talk about today but the situation in Memphis is pretty weird after the Desmond Bane trade we don’t really know what direction are they going to lean towards so it’s worth a call to check how they feel about him right now he has some sign trade potential i feel I’m not very sure mainf is going to give it all for him but I’m not sure either they just want to let him work for free so that’s something the box could check to see if they can make a trade happen there because I think he fits really nice next to Yanis too and that is the kind of power forward who could really shine next to Yiannis play in the five like he’s a he’s mobile he can shoot he can put the ball on the floor he can have some vertical threats he can finish at the rim and he’s not outstanding on defense but I think next to Janice his flaws can get hide a little more and he can shine he’s pretty tall he’s mobile so I think he has a lot of potential to be that player at the four while Janis shine at the five pippen drive blocks Aldava puts it down to ground it a little bit he feels like a better version of Bobby Portis in basically everything except for the ISO scoring i envision this kind of a scenario where Bobby could get trade for him in a sen trade but with like the out for the whole season you might need some guy like Bobby to just give him some bench minutes and let him be the number one guy on offense because the backs are not really loaded in that kind of player but overall I really love Alama i think he would be a great fit so you might want to check what’s happening on Memphis right now justin inside blocked by Aldama gon Ju could fit a similar role to Alama even though they’re different players like Ju is smaller but he’s stronger so he makes up for that and he kind of plays the same position as Sama he also can shoot he also can attack the rim and he also can defend although he has some different skills but I also think he can really fit next to Janice at the five he has proven in Philadelphia that he can be a really useful player and I think Sixers are going to do everything they can to keep him but I’m not really that sure he wants to stay there like the Sixers are in this weird position where we expect them to be good but at the same time they weren’t so why should we expect that again you know so maybe he’s looking for a somewhat competitive environment and he feels the backs can give him that he also decided to sign a way bigger contract that he had but since he was just paid a bit more than $2 million a year maybe he doesn’t take that big of a leap so he get out of reach and the back can offer something that he finds reasonable so this someone I would check on yu look out shabu Michael Brockdong is another name that intrigues me like he’s ending a big contract but it’s clear to me he’s not going to get offered something like the 22 million he was paid that season and that’s mainly because of the injuries he’s had he’s missed a lot of games and he’s also been playing for somewhat irrelevant teams so I think people have forgotten a lot what he can do when healthy and also people don’t expect him to be that healthy anymore but I think you can gamble on him and it’s worth a shot swinging it over to Brogden smart basketball decision by Pula Bali as Brogden i’m not really sure he’s at the better and minimum level yet but I don’t think he’s going to be far from that because he’s probably in an alltime low value because of his health problems so on a skill level he might be the best guard the backs are really able to sign and I think they should try it right like he’s a smart player he can shoot the ball he’s far from his best but I still think he can be pretty useful for the team and if he’s not asking too much of a salary I think he’s worth a shot oh nice pass by Proton Mor slamming it home and last is Jake Arabia who is I know not the flashiest name and he’s not a player I’m thrilled about but I think he could be a nice fit right like he’s a great shooter that first but it’s not just a shooter the backs have had this kind of players like Crowder or Prince who they can just shoot and you see the limitations of that when defense close strong on them and it’s just stop shooting and they have to put the ball on the floor and they don’t know what to do with it and I don’t feel that’s case like he’s not outstanding on that but I think he could be an improvement he can finish at the rim he can move and he’s also bigger than a player like Prince and the backs have had some height problems at the small forward position last year they have like Prince as the taller small forward and he’s not really a tall player for the position and then there was like this huge gap between him and Kman who played at the three sometimes but it’s more like a four i don’t know it’s like this weird gap in the roster and Arabia can really help there he could bring some size some rebounding so I don’t think he’s going to move the needle for a lot of teams i’m not really sure if the Kings are going to want to keep him so that’s someone else that might want to give a call and see how it goes the draft hardwork these are five players i think the bags could really use and now you can give me yours in the comments thanks for
