Milwaukee Bucks Fans React to Losing Key Player
The Milwaukee Bucks are poised to be a leading team in the Eastern Conference in 2024, a status they’ve maintained over the past five years. However, after three consecutive early playoff exits, they face the challenge of reclaiming their dominance.
Losing one of their primary shooters complicates this task unless they have a solid backup plan.
The Milwaukee Bucks Lose a Top Shooter
Robin Adams reported that Malik Beasley has played his last game for the Bucks. While there could have been a place for Beasley on the roster if he had returned, his role on offense would have diminished. Head coach Doc Rivers had already moved Beasley to the bench, and he would likely remain there if he stayed.
According to NBA insider Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report, the veteran guard will not return to Milwaukee for the 2024-25 season. Haynes confirmed, “Malik Beasley has played his last game for the Milwaukee Bucks.”
The Bucks now need to find a shooter who can match Beasley’s impressive 41% shooting rate and add a versatile defender or two to their roster.

Beasley was actually playing winning basketball this year. Lone bright spot.

Def a replaceable player, but a shame to see him go. Solid stretch player for Giannis
