Chris Copeland

Chris Copeland’s stint with the 2015-16 Bucks most likely scores somewhere from forgettable to disappointing in the minds of Bucks fans.

After starting the season opener, Cope played sparingly in the 24 games he was active, shooting only 28 percent from a supposed specialty location behind the arc. Perhaps because of this, the Bucks released him in February to make room for veteran and Milwaukee native Steve Novak.

Given that the Bucks faced little competition in initially signing Copeland, the outlook of his finding another NBA gig was relatively bleak. He did manage to score a non-guaranteed deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, but was released before the season’s start.

It doesn’t look like Copeland has landed with a team for this season, but given that he has played overseas before, his basketball career won’t be over should he want it to continue.
