When the Milwaukee Bucks signed Amir Coffey, it was a shining example of the power of resourcefulness. At a time when it seemed as though Milwaukee was out of options, it brought in a sharpshooting scorer who can instantly improve the quality of the second unit.
Unfortunately, new details about Coffey's contract have complicated the matter of adding him to the roster without losing what little depth is in place.
Eric Nehm of The Athletic reported that Coffey signed a training camp deal with the Bucks in mid-August. The external hope was that it would be an Exhibit 10 contract, which would've given Milwaukee the ability to convert it into a a standard minimum deal while leaving the door open for a G League stint.
