Myles Turner joins Milwaukee Bucks seeking title redemption

Myles Turner (Milwaukee Bucks)
October 2025

After narrowly missing out on an NBA title with the Pacers last season, Myles Turner signed a four-year, $108.9 million deal with the Milwaukee Bucks to chase a championship alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo. Turner replaces Brook Lopez, offering youth, mobility, and two-way impact.
The Bucks created cap space by waiving injured guard Damian Lillard and stretching his $20 million salary over five years. Turner, a proven rim protector and floor-spacer, said Milwaukee’s championship pedigree and shared mindset convinced him to join. Coach Doc Rivers plans to use Turner as a stretch-five and playmaker at the elbow to expand his role.
