The Milwaukee Bucks have came a long way from being in the lottery and in the rebuilding phase to being an 6th seeded playoff team. The Bucks started back in the 2014 NBA Draft. They had the 2nd pick of the draft and they picked the most "NBA ready" player in Jabari Parker from Duke University. That same summer of 2014, the Bucks acquired head coach Jason Kidd from a trade with the Brooklyn Nets.On December 15, Jabari Parker tore his ACL and was out for the season. On the last day of the trade deadline, the Bucks were a part of a 3-way trade with the Phoenix Suns and Philadelphia 76ers. The Bucks sent Brandon Knight, who was in his final year of his contract, while the Bucks received Michael Carter-Williams, Miles Plumlee, and Tyler Ennis. By the end of the season, the Bucks finished the season 41-41 with a 6th seed versus the 3rd seeded Chicago Bulls. The Bucks lost to the Bulls in six games. In this free agency, the Bucks signed free agent Greg Monroe for a 3-year $50 million contract and resigned Khris Middleton for a 5-year $70 million contract. The Bucks will be a team to look forward to watching because they have the correct players to give some teams a challenge and make a deeper run in the playoffs. The Bucks also revealed their new logo and new home and away uniforms. How good will the Milwaukee Bucks be this upcoming season?
