The Milwaukee Bucks may not need to make massive changes to their roster to contend for an NBA title, but there is always room for improvement.
Injuries are the worst aspect of professional sports. Just ask the Bucks. They won the NBA championship in 2020-21. With that in mind, you may want to limit the sympathy you extend them. At the same time, they may have been able to defend their title in 2021-22 – if not for injuries.
Khris Middleton went down in the postseason, and the Bucks’ odds collapsed with him. Middleton plays a vital role on this squad as the Robin to Giannis Antetkounmpo’s Batman. Without him, the Bucks didn’t have a reliable enough fall-back option.
This organization surely has the blueprint to continue contending in 2022-23. With that said, upgrading the roster couldn’t hurt.
