The Milwaukee Bucks are slowly surrounding forward Giannis Antetokounmpo with more pieces to make this team a contender for the long run. Having captured the services of Eric Bledsoe earlier last month, the Bucks will “investigate” the possibility of a future lineup featuring L.A. Clippers big man DeAndre Jordan, according to ESPN's Zach Lowe.
A big man pick-and-roll between Antetokounmpo and Jordan could be one of the most unstoppable combinations in modern day basketball, with Jordan regarded as one of the best lob catchers in the league, while The Greek Freak has proved himself an unstoppable force when he puts his head down and drives with force to the hole.
Yet Lowe warned the Bucks would have some key decisions to make in the next seven months, doubting that they could pay all of their players and Jordan at the same time.
“The Bucks can't pay all of Antetokounmpo, Bledsoe, Parker, Middleton, Tony Snell, and Jordan,” wrote Lowe. “They almost certainly can't get Jordan without giving up one of their good and expensive rotation guys, anyway. (I would be very surprised if they flipped Parker for Jordan, to be clear.)”
Jordan is surely a rather expensive commodity to have in this team and one that wouldn't come to this team without the front office making some sacrifices to fit the bill.
