Milwaukee Bucks offseason move No. 4:  Sign a floor spacer

With Bryn Forbes reportedly opting out of his contract worth $2.4 million for next season, the Milwaukee Bucks may need to find another perimeter sniper.  Forbes is looking to maximize his potential earnings given that he now is an NBA champion.

Forbes averaged 10.0 points and 1.6 rebounds in just 19.3 minutes per game. Where he helped the Bucks the most was that he hit 45.2 percent of his 4.9 attempts from beyond the arc per game. This means that the defense was not able to create a wall in front of Antetokounmpo in order to stop[ the Bucks from scoring.

Forbes is not very strong defensively so if the Bucks could find a shooter with a decent defensive IQ, then this could make the franchise even stronger for next season. As they are now the hunter, they are going to have to improve in order to stay ahead of the pack.

There should be no shortage of suitors looking to fill this bench role as the Bucks are going to be among the top title contenders when the season starts again in October. Signing another knockdown perimeter shooter will help this situation.
