According to the latest report by HoopsHype famous reporter Michael Scotto, the Milwaukee Bucks officially signed a four-year, $108.9 million contract with center Miles Turner, which is $1.9 million higher than the previously reported four-year, 107 million.

The details of this contract were announced by payroll expert Yossi Gozlan, showing the accurate calculations of the Bucks management in the salary space - after they renewed Portis and laid off Lillard and Misic, they just left $25.318 million, all for signing Turner.

Turner's contract structure is as follows:

2025-26 season: 25.318 million US dollars

2026-27 season: 26.584 million US dollars

2027-28 season: 27.850 million US dollars

2028-29 season: 29.116 million US dollars (player option)

The year-on-year increase design of this contract is not only in line with the Bucks' salary plan, but also gives Turner greater flexibility in the future. If he chooses to break out of the contract in 2028, he still has the opportunity to fight for a larger pension contract.

The Bucks' operations this summer can be regarded as a textbook for salary management:

Cut off Lillard: Use extended clauses to share its 2-year contract of 113 million, accounting for only 22.6 million space per year in the next five years.

contract renewal Portis: 44 million yuan left in the interior player for three years and consolidate the depth of the substitute.

Trading Misic: Free up some salary space, and the final accurate position was 25.318 million, just match Turner's first annual salary.

This series of operations allowed the Bucks to successfully introduce a top center who averaged 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.0 blocks while avoiding the explosion of luxury tax.

Turner's joining has fully upgraded the Bucks' inside offense and defense. If Turner can stay healthy, his "two tower combination" with Antetokounmpo is expected to dominate the eastern penalty area and become the biggest threat to the Celtics, the Knicks and other teams.

Whether the Bucks' gamble will be successful is unknown, but in any case, the Bucks have already used the most extreme salary to find the strongest inside partner for Antetokounmpo. Can the combination of "Trenter + Antetokounmpo" bring the Bucks back to the finals? ——The East will usher in a brand new inside war in the new season!
