Key Additions: coach Mike Budenholzer, C Brook Lopez, PF Ersan Ilyasova

Key Subtractions: SF/PF Jabari Parker, C Marshall Plumlee

The Milwaukee Bucks, after a season in which led to head coach Jason Kidd being removed, added one of the best basketball coaches currently in the NBA in Mike Budenholzer, who was let go by the Atlanta Hawks this summer.

In addition to adding a top tier coach, the Bucks added sweet shooting and deadly scoring big man Brook Lopez. With the additions of Budenholzer and Lopez to compliment budding Eastern Conference superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Bucks had a great offseason and positioned themselves to be major players in the Eastern Conference in 2018-19.
