The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as we learn how Nikola Mirotic played a part in helping the Bucks lure Pau Gasol to Milwaukee following his buyout with the San Antonio Spurs.
In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we learn of Nikola Mirotic’s role in helping Pau Gasol in his decision to join the Bucks after being bought out by the San Antonio Spurs, the Bucks make Eric Bledsoe‘s four-year contract official Monday afternoon, and much more.
Having been teammates on the Spanish national team as well as during their respective stints with the Chicago Bulls, the good word and partial sell job Mirotic put in certainly left an impression on the 38-year-old Gasol, which helped set the wheels in motion for his signing late last week.
