Mirza Teletovic, Milwaukee Bucks

Contract: Three-year, $30M

Mirza Teletovic set the NBA record for most three-pointers made by a reserve last season, breaking Chuck Person’s record of 164 three-pointers made off the bench.

Now, as he re-unites with Jason Kidd in Milwaukee, Teletovic looks to bring his trademark three-point shooting to the Brew City. Signing a three-year, $30 million dollar deal, the Bucks got the shooter they were looking for at a below market value.

That was most likely due to his familiarity playing in Jason Kidd’s system ( he played for Kidd when he coached the Brooklyn Nets). Whatever the case may be for his signing, he chose the Bucks and now they got one of the most underrated stretch-4’s in the NBA.

For a team that desperately needed shooting, Teletovic might’ve found the perfect fit in Milwaukee. Even at the off chance that he doesn’t mesh with the team, his contract could be easily traded because of how little they’re paying him in comparison to some of the other contracts signed this summer.
