The Milwaukee Bucks are going into a vital off-season, and surprisingly the media has yet to broach this story.
The following Bucks players will either be a free agent or have a player option in 2023:
Khris Middleton, Brook Lopez, Wesley Matthews, Serge Ibaka, George Hill, Joe Ingles
Not only do the Bucks risk losing these vital core players in free agency, but they are all on the wrong side of 30.
This is a real weird list of players. Ibaka, matthews and hill will largely be out of the league next year. They could bring back any of them on the minimum if they want to. Not really sure how relevant ingles is. The only needle mover is probably Middleton so this is a real long winded and strange way of saying.
George Hill - 31 GP, 19.7 MPG
Brook Lopez - 40 GP, 33.7 MPG
Wesley Matthews - 26 GP, 14.9 MPG
Serge Ibaka - 16 GP, 11.6 MPG
Joe Ingles - 11 GP, 19.8 MPG
*Jevon Carter - 41 GP, 25 MPG
These are staples of their roster
*also off contract in 2023
