The Milwaukee Bucks are retooling for another NBA playoff run, which could include making a run at future Hall of Famer Chris Paul

The Bucks lack sufficient quality depth at the guard position, specifically when it comes to ball-handling.

Another potential option for the Bucks is Bradley Beal, who is reportedly nearing a buyout from the Phoenix Suns. Beal offers the Bucks a great solution to their guard problem.

There is another guard who is a free agent and available, but he won't be coming to the Bucks. That would be star guard Damian Lillard, who the team waived to create cap space to sign center Myles Turner.

Lillard posted an interesting message on X (formerly Twitter) regarding his surprising free agency.
