Milwaukee Bucks Lock In Bobby Portis On Team-Friendly Deal

  • The Milwaukee Bucks re-signed Bobby Portis on June 29, 2025, to a three-year, $44 million contract including a player option for 2027-28.
  • Portis declined his $13.4 million player option to negotiate a longer-term deal, aiming to remain with the Bucks amid a complex offseason.
  • Portis, a 30-year-old veteran with a decade of NBA experience and a key bench player since 2020, posted averages of 13.9 points and 8.4 rebounds during the 49 games he played last season despite missing 25 games due to suspension.
  • His $14.7 million average salary is just above the midlevel exception, allowing Milwaukee to retain cap flexibility alongside other exceptions to improve its roster.
  • Portis's return ensures stability for the Bucks' bench unit and frontcourt depth as they prepare for roster changes and continue to pursue contention around Giannis Antetokounmpo.
