NBA Free Agency 2017 Player Profile: Thabo Sefolosha
By Ti Windisch
Any team could use another cagey wing player added via NBA free agency. The Milwaukee Bucks could grab one by signing Thabo Sefolosha.
It typically isn’t easy to add a high-level player through NBA free agency. The primo free agents are typically either staying put or going to a team that’s absolutely perfect for them, or one ready to back up the Brinks truck.
Luckily for the Milwaukee Bucks, the team has its franchise player already. Giannis Antetokounmpo will need some star-level help to contend, but in addition some high-character veterans will help the Bucks grow.

Thabo Sefolosha is an ideal candidate in that regard. The Swiss wing player may be most famous for his assault at the hands of police officers in New York City, but Sefolosha returned from the broken leg he suffered and continued to play at a quietly high level last season.
Sefolosha isn’t a high-profile free agent and he’s not likely to make major headlines when he signs this summer, not compared to some moves that will happen during NBA free agency, but he might just make a big impact on whatever team picks him up.
Will that team be the Bucks? To find out, let’s go through Thabo’s strengths, weaknesses, potential salary and how he’d fit in Milwaukee.
