The Milwaukee Bucks made major waves on Tuesday morning by signing longtime Indiana Pacers big man Myles Turner to a four-year, $107 million deal. In a corresponding move the organization waived Damian Lillard and will stretch the remaining $113 million on the sharpshooter's contract to cover the Turner expenses.

The Bucks made that space happen by waiving and stretching the $113 million left on Lillard's contract as he heals up from the torn Achilles he suffered during the 2025 NBA Playoffs. While this was an aggressive move to help the Bucks build a contender around Giannis for next season, the Greek forward's reaction will worry them.
