Former Arkansas forward and NBA champion Bobby Portis will remain with the Milwaukee Bucks.
After declining his $3.8 million player option for the 2021-22 season and becoming a free agent, Portis has agreed to a two-year, $9 million deal with a second year player option, according to NBA insider Shams Charania.
“After (winning an) NBA championship, Portis’ loyalty was with Milwaukee and he cherished the organization’s culture and winning environment,” Charania tweeted. “The MIL community embraced him. Portis passed on more money in favor of the Bucks last summer — and this year he stuck with happiness and stability.
