KPJ also receives five 2nds as well as the PO.

Can the Bucks use a trade exemption and Patty C in the same trade?

This sets us up to keep him long term if it works out this year.

Early bird rights. Which i think will mean that we can top him out at around 11m per season

KPJ and Bobby were crucial. Lots of ways to have a great off-season now.

Solid deal. Will give us early bird on him next offseason so if he breaks out like some expect we can give him a much bigger contract to be able to retain him

I wouldn't be mad at Ayton. He would be the youngest Bucks starting center since Joel Pryzballa (don't fact check me, bros).

Hopefully KPJ has grown being around adults in the room. Like emunney has said before, dude came about 1 brain wave away from missing the rest of the season to cheap shot Gobert, and in the past he probably would've, but would like to think the Giannis influence is strong with this one. The young cats at the draft really seemed to like working out with Giannis too. Glad he's just such a professional and a good influence.

It's the MKE tax because these guys don't want to live in MKE.

Pryzballa had to have started a game in that last stint here where he played like 5 games, I dont think he was that young.

Yeah, Pat Connaughton and Bobby Portis HATE it here.

I would guess it was Bogut, even though we had Magloire early.

Looks like KPJ deal is with the BAE

Centers are flying off the board. ESPN saying the warriors are likely for Horford.

Katz confirmed BAE for KPJ
