5. Find veterans to fill out roster

The Milwaukee Bucks need experience and leadership at the end of their bench. They should be searching for veterans that are eager to chase a ring. As long as the Bucks have Giannis, the team will be in contention and guys looking for a shot at a championship will be interested in joining their roster on a minimum deal.

Last season, Joe Ingles, Goran Dragic, Meyers Leonard, and Wesley Matthews were all eager to take their shot at earning a ring in Milwaukee. Can the Bucks convince more veterans to join their roster at the minimum to both keep their costs down and improve their overall talent? Expect that to be the plan.

These players are usually stuck in limbo in free agency. They wait for larger deals, and if they don’t materialize, veterans choose a contending roster. That is why this rests fifth on the list, but the Bucks should quickly contact their targets to express their interest.

Will the Milwaukee Bucks be able to keep Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez? If so, where does the front office go next? It will be a wild few weeks as the Bucks round out their roster, so stay tuned for all the latest.
