The Bucks opted against trading Giannis Antetokounmpo at this year’s deadline, instead simply deciding to stand pat aside from a few moves on the fringes. It was an interesting decision for Milwaukee, but one that will likely pay great dividends if the team does opt to send Antetokounmpo elsewhere this offseason; the chances of a godfather offer for the Greek superstar are much higher in the summer than in the middle of the season.
On Sunday, with the rest of the sports-viewing population preparing for Super Bowl LX between the Patriots and Seahawks, Milwaukee made a move to fortify its current roster regardless of the Antetokounmpo situation. ESPN’s Shams Charania reported the Bucks had signed free agent guard Cam Thomas. He’ll likely come off the bench behind breakout guard Ryan Rollins and Kevin Porter Jr.
