With the signing of Anzejs Pasecniks official, the Milwaukee Bucks have filled out their 18-man roster.

When that was announced, many thought that would be the final move in what has been an offseason full of solid moves for Milwaukee. However, despite their roster being full, the team is at least doing their due diligence on further upgrades, as HoopsHype's Michael Scotto has reported that the Bucks recently brought in 27-year-old Terence Davis for a workout.

This isn't the first time Milwaukee has been linked to Davis; they were also eyeing him last summer.

The Bucks cannot offer Terence Davis a standard roster spot

It's interesting to hear that the Bucks are working out players despite their roster being full. Unless a surprise trade or release happens, the latter of which is extremely unlikely, the team could not offer him a standard roster spot. Does it signal that the team could be looking to make room? It's possible. It could also just be them doing their homework on players they think could be valuable.

With their standard roster spots spoken for, the Bucks could offer Davis a short-term deal to join them for training camp to fight for a spot. Like they've done over the past couple of seasons with veterans like Glenn Robinson III or Tyreke Evans, they could also allow him to join the Wisconsin Herd in the G-League as he attempts to make an NBA comeback.

What Terence Davis would bring to the Bucks

If the Milwaukee Bucks have learned any lesson over these past few seasons, it's that there is no such thing as too much wing depth. Injuries happen, and a lack of depth at that spot has come back to bite them time and time again, so it makes sense that they are keeping an eye on a wing. In the event that they need some depth, they will have already done some homework on Davis.

During his four-year career with the Raptors and Kings, Davis averaged eight points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game while shooting 36.6 percent from three. There were glimpses of 3-and-D potential with Davis, but he was never able to unearth it.

He appeared in the G-League with the Rip City Remix very briefly this past season before suffering a season-ending injury in January. He suffered a ruptured Achilles, which is no small injury. As he aims to work his way back into the NBA, it appears the Milwaukee Bucks wanted to see what kind of shape he's in following this injury.

Whether it ultimately becomes something bigger or just stays as a one-time workout, it's interesting to see that the Milwaukee Bucks are still at least keeping tabs on talent. Given that they also looked at him last year, they clearly see something in him.
