The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova remarks on making his return to Milwaukee and the many changes the organization has experienced in his three-year stint elsewhere around the league.

In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, Ersan Ilyasova feels welcome in his return back to Milwaukee, we round up breakdowns of the Bucks’ new-look offensive stylings from opening night and much more.

Having spent his first eight NBA seasons as a member of the Bucks, the vast changes and the overall facelift Milwaukee has experienced in the last few seasons occurred while the Turkish veteran bounced around all over the league. But with his family staying in Milwaukee throughout that time, as well as reuniting with head coach Mike Budenholzer, who he played under for a year while with the Atlanta Hawks, Ilyasova has enjoyed coming back to the place where his NBA career got off the ground.
