Assuming the Pistons offer Horst the bag, he'd be a fool to pass it up. The organizational make-up in Detroit presents some hesitation, but Horst really can't improve his Milwaukee resume enough to get better opportunities elsewhere.Brook and his $25M expiring should be moveable to a team looking to clear cap space for 2025-26.With the Bucks cap situation and lack of picks, I don’t see how they could make significant changes. Just mostly run it back and hope for good health.
Gonna be interesting to see if Horst leaves for Detroit when they inevitably offer him a bag.
Agree with you on Brook Lopez. Love the guy, but it's time to move on. If the Bucks keep him and he walks in a year, they'll lose his salary slot. I'd shop him to the Pelicans. He's the perfect defense +stretch 5 to put next to Zion, and they have plenty of players on the roster that would make sense for the Bucks. If that doesn't work, there are plenty of other teams that could use Brook (Memphis?).
Also, Milwaukee can put Bobby Portis & Pat Connaughton together and get to lower $20 mil salary range. Or combine one of them with the #23 or #33 picks to improve their athleticism. Time to shake up the snow globe around the stars.
