Bucks Sign Delon Wright to One-Year Deal
Last summer, the Milwaukee Bucks made headlines with their major trade for Damian Lillard. Although this summer is quieter, the Bucks are still focused on a strong comeback season.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski, free agent guard Delon Wright has signed a one-year, $3.3 million contract with the Bucks. While not a game-changing move, Wright adds depth to the roster.
Wright, a nine-year NBA veteran, has played for teams like the Toronto Raptors, Dallas Mavericks, and Washington Wizards. Last season, he played for the Miami Heat, averaging 5.4 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game.

The Bucks, aiming for a better performance next season, will rely on the duo of Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Despite their potential, the team struggled with injuries and coaching changes, resulting in a disappointing playoff run.
With hopes of reclaiming their status as championship contenders, the Bucks are under pressure. Antetokounmpo is eager for another title, and a poor season could spark rumors of his departure.
Wright joins a determined squad aiming to excel in the Eastern Conference. His contribution off the bench will be crucial in their quest for success.
