Originally, in the market this summer, besides Kevin Durant, the core "Antetokounmpo" Giannis Antetokounmpo is also worthy of attention. However, after meeting with the team, this super giant tends to stay. No matter from which perspective, it is definitely worth encouraging. Then the Bucks must not play badly, but should improve the lineup as much as possible.

Of course, "Antetokounmpo" Giannis Antetokounmpo stayed in the Bucks because the Eastern Conference team has a clear attitude and they refuse to demolish the team and hope to fight again. However, Damian Lillard, the core of the outside line, is seriously injured and even has the possibility of season reimbursement. The Bucks must find a replacement. They want to introduce Lakers' former defender Dennis Schroeder, former Celtics' six-year-old Malcolm Brogdon and Suns' Tailes Jones are spare tires.

Denis Schroeder played for the Lakers twice, but the results were not very good. He was just as good as LeBron James, and he was not the defender the Lakers needed the most. Dennis Schroder switched teams many times this season, and even played for the Warriors. In the second half, he joined the Pistons in an attempt to make up for the injury of Jaden Ivey. From this perspective, Dennis Schroder performed well. He averaged 12.5 points and 3.7 assists per game in the playoffs, and his shooting percentage was close to 50% in both events. This performance is quite exaggerated. It is just that the Pistons lack experience and the referee's call is controversial, which leads to their first round game. Compared with his peak period, Dennis Schroder is still sharp in his offense, and his organizational transmission and control and overall awareness have also improved his level. However, the Pistons have clearly revealed that they hope to keep Dennis Schroder. It is probably not that easy for the Bucks to steal people.

Malcolm Brogdon played for many strong teams in his career, such as during his time at the Celtics, and also played as a sixth player. However, in the past two seasons, Malcolm Brogden has played for the bad team, averaging 12.7 points, 3.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game this season. But Malcolm Brogden's attendance rate in recent years is somewhat bleak. Although the Wizards deliberately retain it this season, it is too exaggerated that he only played 24 times. Malcolm Brogden was selected by the Bucks and won the Best Rookie Award. If both sides renew their relationship, it may be worth looking forward to.

As for Tailes Jones, his experience is a bit sad. He refused multiple reconstruction teams last summer and chose to join the Suns with a basic salary. However, here Tailes Jones did not hold the main position, and even because the Suns missed the play-offs, his market plummeted instantly. It is likely that he would prove himself again this summer.
