Milwaukee Bucks: Remembering the Dwyane Wade free agency saga

The Milwaukee Bucks have certainly not been known as a desirable free agency destination over the past decade.

While that sentiment has changed to some extent over the past several years due to the team’s rise to contention and their title-winning season, it goes without saying that star players were not flocking to Milwaukee once their contracts were up previously. That made it incredibly interesting when the Bucks were reportedly in the running for superstar shooting guard Dwyane Wade in the 2016 offseason. Wade was a familiar face in the area as he played his college basketball at Marquette from 2001-03, but the idea of him joining the Bucks was a shocking one.
