Well, the Bucks surprise us once again by re-signing Pete Nance to a new deal after they waived him just a week ago. Per Jake Fischer and Eric Nehm, the contract is for two years with a team option on the second year; it is also non-guaranteed, giving the team extra flexibility if they want to move off it early.
This brings the roster back to 16 players. It was down to 15 after the deal that sent Taurean Prince and Gary Harris to Detroit in exchange for Caris LeVert (and picks), but it is now a player over the limit. This either means that 1) there could be more fireworks to come in this crazy Bucks offseason, or 2) there will be some fierce training camp battles.
As for Nance, it’s good to have him back. Not only is he a good player, but he’s also a great person to have around the locker room to be a “veteran” for the younger guys (or even just guys who are up and down from the Herd to the Bucks, like he was). A solid shooter and fast decision-maker, Nance can play a role and help this team win games this season.
