NBA Free Agency 2017 Player Profile: Anthony Tolliver
By Ti Windisch
Every team could use another talented veteran in NBA free agency. Could Anthony Tolliver be one of those guys for the Milwaukee Bucks?
The Milwaukee Bucks are in an interesting spot regarding this year’s NBA free agency. Every fan wants their team to snag a huge name in free agency — this season, players like Gordon Hayward and Chris Paul are getting a lot of attention in that regard.
The Bucks are in no position to even consider either of those players. Both because they’ve got their star player in Giannis Antetokounmpo, and because Milwaukee has absolutely no cap space to use this summer.
Giannis is good enough for the Bucks to be competitive even without adding another star, but he needs a good cast of players around him. Both new draftees and veterans added in free agency will determine Milwaukee’s success going forward.
