Final Bucks NBA Draft Preview: Options at 47 and trade-up scenarios

Thanks to PrizePicks our favorite sponsor! Bobby Portis is coming back to the Milwaukee Bucks on a three-year $44 million contract, and he’s already posted about how excited he is to be staying in Milwaukee. Ti Windisch did a quick solo Gyro Step podcast to discuss how much of a deal this is for the Bucks, the flexibility it opens for Jon Horst to finish re-tooling the roster around Giannis Antetokounmpo, how Portis proved down the stretch last season that he’s a great fit with Giannis, and just how cool it is that Big Bob embraces being the Mayor of Milwaukee.

Thanks to PrizePicks our favorite sponsor! The day after the 2025 NBA Draft concluded Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti circled back to share the latest info on Bucks draftee Bogoljub Markovic, including the Bucks history with him and whether he will be stashed or not, plus the signing of undrafted rookie Mark Sears to a two-way deal.Then Ti and Rohan preview Bucks free agency by covering how Milwaukee can spend on free agents without cap space, the key names Jon Horst needs to either bring in or retain (including Gary Trent Jr, Bobby Portis, Ryan Rollins, and Jericho Sims), and why the Bucks may need to fill gaps via trade given this lackluster free agency class.

Thanks to PrizePicks our favorite sponsor! The Milwaukee Bucks shocked Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti by sticking at 47 overall and selecting Bogoljub Markovic, one of Ti's favorite second round prospects. Ti and Rohan were live on Bleacher Report when the pick was made, so you get their immediate reaction to both Markovic being the pick plus the Gyro Steppers hoping he wouldn't be stashed just to find out that is reportedly the plan. They also added a podcast-exclusive rant as part of the intro on the ridiculous idea that Giannis Antetokounmpo was watching pick 47 and determining his future based on who Milwaukee took.

Some of the names discussed include Maxime Raynaud, Bryce’s top prospect for the Bucks available in the second round, as well as Sion James, Ben Saraf, Alex Toohey, Bogoljub Markovic, Tyrese Proctor, Kam Jones, John Tonje, Javon Small, first rounders like Cedric Coward and Carter Bryant, and more. Be sure to follow Bryce on Twitter @BryceHendrick14 and check out the Upside Swing wherever you watch or listen to the Gyro Step!GSPN's Bucks podcasts are presented by PrizePicks – Go to PrizePicks.com/Gyrostep and use code GYROSTEP for a $50 bonus when you play $5 for the first time!

Thanks to PrizePicks for sponsoring the Gyro Step!The NBA Finals aren’t yet over but the NBA rolls ever onward with the NBA Draft less than a week away and free agency soon after, so Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti of the Gyro Step podcast dove in and shared their ideal realistic Bucks offseason scenarios. The pod opened with their thoughts on Giannis Antetokounmpo’s new career as a TikToker and potential streamer, before Ti and Rohan went through the current state of the Bucks cap sheet and why running it back completely is actually harder than you’d think. Then Rohan shared his vision for the best realistic Bucks offseason moves before Ti did the same, with many of the same key vets retained from last year’s squad but different players brought in to fill out the new Point Giannis play-style. Ti and Rohan agreed that Bobby Portis and Gary Trent Jr. need to be retained, but were willing to let players like Brook Lopez and Kevin Porter Jr. walk.There’s also another edition of Bucks Bounty and some Tom Cruise and Rocky/Creed talk at the end.

Use code Gyrostep for a $50 bonus when you play $5!It’s the offseason for the Milwaukee Bucks, which means more rampant speculation on the future of Giannis Antetokounmpo. Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti of the Gyro Step parse through the reporting to reveal nothing of substance has happened but the Bucks spot is still pretty tough, and then go through the few teams who make any sense as Giannis destinations who could compete for a title with Giannis and somewhat compensate the Bucks for acquiring him post-NBA Draft Lottery.

Use code Gyrostep for a $50 bonus when you play $5! The Milwaukee Bucks don’t have many assets to trade this summer, but newly-extended GM Jon Horst is used to being in that spot. Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti of the Gyro Step take turns stepping into Horst’s seat on this episode, pretending to call other executives around the NBA and pitch their trade ideas that are both somewhat realistic and help Milwaukee compete without Damian Lillard and playing Giannis Antetokounmpo more at the point forward spot.  GSPN's Bucks podcasts are presented by PrizePicks – Go to PrizePicks.com/Gyrostep and use code GYROSTEP for a $50 bonus when you play $5 for the first time!
