#MILWAUKEE BUCKS ROSTER CRACKED#
It would very much be a surprise to most if DeLaurier cracked the Bucks final 17-man roster (including the two-way contracts), but he showed great defensive prowess in the Canadian Elite Basketball League. But he is one of the few big men on the roster, so there’s an opportunity to be had for DeLaurier to impress and earn a chance with the Wisconsin Herd and maybe even snag the final two-way slot. It’s not a surprise to anyone reading this that DeLaurier would be on the roster bubble, considering he was signed to a simple camp/Exhibit 10 deal. Instead, I’ll go with the recently signed Javin DeLaurier. I won’t lie to you ,good people, I originally had Elijah Bryant slotted right here, but, uh, he got waived less than 12 hours after I finished writing the original version of this article.
3 players on the Milwaukee Bucks roster bubble: Javin DeLaurier That’s also assuming the Bucks will load manage their core players more this regular season after a grueling championship run followed by a short turnaround in the offseason, so there’s playing time to be had. The NBA is also keeping most of its two-way player rules from last season regarding how many games a two-way player can play during the regular season, so whoever grabs that last spot can still have a chance to impact the roster and play real minutes. While these are not big-name players, they’re young and could be worth taking a flier on to see if they can be developed into a rotation player. All of the Bucks’ major offseason moves (George Hill, Grayson Allen, Semi Ojeleye, and Rodney Hood) should be safe unless something drastic happens.įrom there it’s about looking at the players who will grab the last few spots on the roster and the final two-way contract spot (spoiler: Sandro Mamukelashvili is definitely holding onto the first two-way spot).

#MILWAUKEE BUCKS ROSTER UPGRADE#
While most expect the Phoenix Suns to upgrade their roster in some shape or form, there remains the possibility of some downgrades for one very specific reason. The Phoenix Suns have had a beneficial offseason to date, re-signing starting center Deandre Ayton, as well as agreeing to contract extensions with superstar Devin Booker and head coach Monty Williams.ĭeals can still, and are likely to be made as the period progress into what the franchise hopes will be an historic 2022-23 NBA season.
