Dame to the Bucks… New Favorite in the East 🦌
Dame, Giannis, and Khris are a SCARY big 3.
Dame has even expressed the desire to play with Giannis in the past. ⌚️

Basketball is a business. The day before this trade went down, Jrue Holiday said he wanted to be a Buck for life.
We hope Jrue ends up in a great situation and continue his phenomenal career.
Will Milwaukee win a championship in the next few years? 🏆
I believe they will make it out of the east on a regular basis, and they will most likely meet the Nuggets in the Finals.
The Suns, Warriors, and other teams across the league will now have to try to match the firepower that the Bucks have.
Once the Finals come around, several factors like health, chemistry, and in-season moves will play a huge factor.
You thought Dame was going to the Heat? So did Jimmy Butler and everyone else in the country.
Jimmy Butler reacts to Dame being traded to the Bucks:
“The NBA, man… y’all need to look into the Bucks for tampering. You didn’t hear it from me, but I heard it from somebody.” 👀🍿

Chris Haynes wrote an in-depth article explaining how everything unfolded with the Dame trade.
Dame even tried to go back to Portland, but they would not take him back.
Jabari Parkers calls out the NBA
Jabari Parker calls out the NBA, describing the league as "watered down," and outlines why he chose to leave for Barcelona 😳
“I just want to be a part of something legitimate. I want to be a part of ‘every game matters’. Sadly, the NBA is a business and there are 10-12 teams… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Jabari expressed his feelings about the NBA, but you can see in the full interview (by EuroHoops) below that he elaborated on where his head was at in the decision making process:
“I knew I wanted to play this season and I didn’t want to wait. I didn’t want to have to go through the extenuating process of trying to figure out an NBA team that was going to take a chance on me. As soon as we had the conversations with Mario Bruno Fernández I got down here, they pretty much gave me an offer that I couldn’t refuse. I decided this was the best place for me.” - Jabari Parker
