It’s hard to deny that Gary Trent Jr. stands out as the Milwaukee Bucks’ most significant free agency signing this summer. After all, it was a massive win for Milwaukee to get Trent on a minimum deal despite bigger offers from opposing teams. Somewhat overshadowed by the Trent coup is the acquisition of veteran guard Delon Wright. General manager Jon Horst has now shed some light as to why Wright was their first signing in free agency.

The Milwaukee Bucks swung for the fences last summer when they decided to part ways with Jrue Holiday in a blockbuster trade deal for Damian Lillard. At this point, it wouldn’t be too difficult to determine who won that trade — at least thus far. After all, Holiday went on to win his second career championship with the Boston Celtics this past season while Lillard had to settle for another early first-round exit with his new team.

The Milwaukee Bucks can count themselves lucky for having won the Gary Trent Jr. free-agency lottery. It’s not as if the 6-foot-5 shooting guard was one of the sought-after names on the market, but there’s no denying that the Bucks were not the only team that wanted him. What makes this coup even more amazing is the fact that the Bucks somehow convinced Trent to sign a minimum deal despite significant interest from opposing teams.

Despite the fact that the Milwaukee Bucks have found success in retooling their roster ahead of the new season, there’s no denying that their moves have paled in comparison to some of their biggest rivals in the Eastern Conference. The New York Knicks made a major splash with their Mikal Bridges trade, while the Philadelphia 76ers changed the landscape of the NBA after acquiring Paul George. On top of those, you have the Boston Celtics, who are coming off their 18th franchise championship. Amid the whirlwind of offseason activity in the conference, however, Bucks general manager Jon Horst remains unfazed.…

One of the biggest storylines for the Milwaukee Bucks earlier in the summer did not involve any of its players. It was, in fact, about general manager Jon Horst and his supposed move to the Detroit Pistons. According to reports, the Bucks refused to let Horst leave, and they blocked what would have been a big-money move to Detroit. Horst himself has now broken his silence on the issue as he looks to clear the air and move on from what turned out to be a pretty eventful summer for him.

Despite being one of the most important members of the Milwaukee Bucks roster, Brook Lopez still saw his name dragged into multiple trade rumors this offseason. In truth, this does not come as a complete shock considering how disappointing the previous campaign was for the Bucks after yet another first-round playoff exit. At this point, there appears to be a slight sense of desperation within the team — or at least among the fans — as Milwaukee looks to bounce back in 2024-25. If you ask general manager Jon Horst, however, parting ways with Lopez is absolutely out of the…
