The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as Kawhi Leonard agrees to sign with the LA Clippers and head to the Western Conference.
In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, Kawhi Leonard leaves Toronto for LA and clears Milwaukee’s path to the Finals from the East, the Bucks narrowly lose their first Summer League game, and much more.
There’s a strong case to be made that all that stood between the Bucks and a championship last season was the phenomenal play of Leonard for the Raptors in the Conference Finals, and with his departure, Milwaukee will enter the new season with one less rival in their way.
