Notable signings, trades, and awards
Apart from being the GM on the World Champion Milwaukee Bucks, Jon Horst was the 2019 Executive of the Year. He was the mastermind behind getting Brook Lopez, Jrue Holiday, Bobby Portis, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, and so many more. He is also the one who signed Brook, Giannis, Jrue, Khris Middleton, and more, to extensions; keeping the main core together.

Extending Jon Horst was the right move. He has given the Bucks a roster that can compete year in and year out. Bucks fans have a lot to be excited about going forward.
