Tyler Smith

MIL Power Forward #21

27dTyler Smith amassed 21 points (6-of-13 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), five rebounds and four three-pointers in Friday’s loss to the Heat.

The 33rd overall pick in the 2024 draft, Smith finished his 2025 summer league experience with a solid offensive showing against the Heat. He appeared in 23 games as a rookie, averaging 2.9 points and 1.1 rebounds in 5.3 minutes. Given the number of wings on the Bucks’ roster, Smith faces an arduous climb to earn consistent rotation minutes. While managers in deeper dynasty leagues may keep an eye on him, there won’t be a need for that in redraft leagues.

Chris Livingston

MIL Small Forward #7

29dBucks re-signed Chris Livingston to a one-year, $2.3 million deal.

Milwaukee waived Livingston early this month, and now they’ll bring him back on a fully-guaranteed deal. The 2023 second-round pick hasn’t carved out a role with Milwaukee through his first two seasons, but he has been producing at a high level during summer league.

Chris Livingston

MIL Small Forward #7

1moChris Livingston amassed 21 points (8-of-14 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, two steals and one three-pointer in Sunday’s loss to the Clippers.

Livingston is doing all he can to earn another opportunity with the Bucks, who waived him on July 2. If that transaction was meant to motivate the 2023 second-round pick, it’s had the desired effect based on Livingston’s production. He’s been efficient in all three of Milwaukee’s games in Las Vegas, providing solid value in multiple areas. Milwaukee has already allocated all three of its two-way contracts, so that may not be possible for Livingston. However, there are 29 other teams, and at a minimum, he may be able to earn an Exhibit 10 deal that gets him into training camp.

Bogoljub Marković

MIL Power Forward

1moBogoljub Marković finished Sunday’s loss to the Clippers with 14 points (4-of-8 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer.

After offering little production in his first two appearances of the summer, Marković looked far more comfortable on Sunday. The second-round pick out of Serbia shot 50 percent from the field and finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. On draft night, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony reported that Marković is expected to play overseas next season, so the performances in Las Vegas are unlikely to have much of an impact. And being stashed overseas likely guarantees Marković will receive ample game reps, which would not happen in Milwaukee.

Cole Anthony

MIL Point Guard #50

1moESPN’s Shams Charania reports Cole Anthony has agreed to a buyout with the Grizzlies and plans to sign with the Bucks after he clears waivers.

Anthony, who was traded to the Grizzlies as part of the deal that sent Desmond Bane to Orlando, clearly was not going to be in Memphis’ plans next season. He’s reportedly agreed to a contract buyout and has already found his next home once he clears waivers. Anthony is reportedly headed to Milwaukee, which needs additional depth on the perimeter. Even if Damian Lillard were not waived, the Bucks would be in a difficult spot since he’s recovering from a ruptured Achilles tendon. For Anthony, moving to Milwaukee allows him to earn rotation minutes, but his game is not exactly fantasy-friendly.

Pete Nance

MIL Power Forward #35

1moPete Nance tallied 12 points (5-of-11 FGs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, three blocks and two three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Cavaliers.

Nance recorded a complete stat line for the Bucks for the second consecutive game. He’s on a two-way deal, so nothing is guaranteed for the former Northwestern forward regarding the 2025-26 season. With the Bucks waiving Chris Livingston (21/9/5/0/2 with two three-pointers) in early July and having a couple of open standard contract slots available, it’s fair to question what a good stint in Las Vegas can do for Nance.

Pete Nance

MIL Power Forward #35

1moPete Nance amassed 13 points (4-of-9 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), seven rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers in Thursday’s win over the Nuggets.

Two of Milwaukee’s three two-way contract players saw action on Thursday, and both were factors in the team’s one-point victory. Nance offered solid value across the board, while guard Jamaree Bouyea (13/3/5/1/1 with three three-pointers) hit a step-back three as time expired to give Milwaukee the win. Neither Nance nor Bouyea has been able to do enough to stick in the NBA, but the situation in Milwaukee is an interesting one. Neither should be targeted in fantasy drafts, but there may come a time when there is streaming value to be had.

Andre Jackson Jr.

MIL Shooting Guard #44

1moAndre Jackson Jr. accounted for six points (2-of-2 FGs), five rebounds, three assists and two three-pointers in Thursday’s win over the Nuggets.

Likely needing to perform well this summer to get back onto Doc Rivers’ radar after falling out of the rotation after the All-Star break, Jackson recorded a modest stat line on Thursday. He only attempted two shots, but they were both three-pointers, and Jackson shot nearly 40 percent from deep last season. However, that was on 76 attempts, so the percentage has to be taken with a grain of salt. Jackson isn’t a draftable player in fantasy leagues, but he’s worth watching during summer league.

Chris Livingston

MIL Small Forward #7

1moChris Livingston finished Thursday’s win over the Nuggets with 18 points (7-of-12 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, two assists and three three-pointers.

Waived by the Bucks on July 2, Livingston is looking to earn another opportunity in Milwaukee or elsewhere. The former second-round pick had a good night in Thursday’s summer league opener, shooting efficiently with modest production in the rebound and assist categories. Livingston was also 3-of-6 from beyond the arc, noteworthy output for a player who was 1-of-13 from deep in his first two seasons. He shouldn’t be on anyone’s fantasy radar, but it’s good to see free agents perform well in Las Vegas.

Vasilije Micic

FA Point Guard #18

1moBucks agreed to a contract buyout with G Vasilije Micic.

Micic has been traded twice this offseason: once back to Charlotte and then again to Milwaukee after ending last season with the Suns. Now, he’ll be a free agent. Micic had a solid stretch as a streaming option that could provide assists when LaMelo Ball missed time two seasons ago, but the odds of him finding a situation where he can contribute fantasy value next season are low.
