No. 3. Signing Delon Wright

The signing of Delon Wright to a veteran minimum deal kicked off NBA Free Agency for the Bucks. He adds great depth in the backcourt and versatility to play behind or alongside Lillard, which is needed. Wright is a bit of a journeyman in the NBA, but his 6-foot-5 frame and great defensive capabilities are always something of interest to teams, and he can very well run the bench unit.

Another really good part of Wright's game is that he doesn't turn the ball over with him amassing just 14 turnovers in 47 games last season and that security is of real interest to any team. If the Bucks feel he might be needed alongside Lillard then it is a real option, allowing the star to run the offense but pairing him with a nice defensive partner that is a career 35 percent shooter from 3-point range.

Patrick Beverley headed to Europe to continue his basketball career and Wright is a nice replacement that offers similar skills but with a bigger frame and perhaps a calmer presence on the court. Offensively he won't be tasked with too much other than hitting his shots from deep and just keeping the ball moving.

Wright is as good as you can get as a vet minimum in the backcourt, but there are two additions that still just pip him on this list.
