Why The Milwaukee Bucks Do The Deal
No. Not if Crowder requires a starting role, anyway.
After all, the forward spots are locked up in Milwaukee. Crowder is a good 3-and-D wing, but he’s not usurping Giannis Antetokoumnpo or Khris Middleton.
On the other hand, Crowder may largely be upset that the Suns gave his starting position away. With a fresh start, he may have new expectations. If so, the Bucks could be a perfect landing spot for him.
After all, every contender can use a combo forward with elite 3-and-D chops in their rotation. Crowder can find ample minutes at the 3 and the 4 here.

Including formations that feature Antetokoumnpo at the 5, it shouldn’t be difficult for the Bucks to find 20 or more minutes per game for Crowder.
