After finishing last season with the Milwaukee Bucks, Nikola Mirotic has explained why he shocked the NBA by returning to Europe.
When the Milwaukee Bucks landed Spanish international forward Nikola Mirotic at a frantic 2018-19 trade deadline, it seemed like the kind of move that could end up being looked back upon with real significance.
With the Bucks already solidly positioned as one of the NBA’s best teams, and en route to what would finish as a 60-win regular season campaign, the price of four future second round picks was undoubtedly a gamble worth taking for a player who could give Milwaukee an additional weapon heading into the postseason.
