Author: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel July 8, 2023 Duration: 52:11
So much has happened since the last podcast, including the re-signing of Khris Middleton, Brook Lopez, Jae Crowder and ... surprise! ... Robin Lopez and Malik Beasley. Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski looks at the entire free agency situation and what it says about Adrian Griffin's coaching philosophy, Milwaukee's chances next year and the future of Giannis Antetokounmpo. Jim and host JR Radcliffe discuss what comes next for Thanasis Antetokounmpo, who doesn't currently have a roster spot. How are the Bucks going to obtain a backup point guard? What will Jim be watching for in Vegas at the summer league games? What do we make of draft picks Andre Jackson Jr. and Chris Livingston? Should Bucks fans be suspicious of how quietly the team announced that Giannis had knee surgery? Are the Bucks still a favorite in the Eastern Conference?

Music intro produced by Olivia Reiner and voiced by Michelle Rutkowski. Music during segments from SoundCloud, "Pursuit Music Logo."
