The tradition of signing sweet-shooting big men will continue for the Milwaukee Bucks after reports linked the team to Kevin Love.

The previous seasons saw them sign Nikola Mirotic, DeMarcus Cousins, and Serge Ibaka as complementary for star Giannis Antetokounmpo who loves making passes to big men who can shoot from the three-point line.

Hoops Wire reported that the 2021 NBA champions had put the 34-year-old on their target list.

The same report also said that the Bucks want to have Terrence Ross, who shortly played for the Phoenix Suns after spending six years for the Orlando Magic.

Love is a one-time NBA champ with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He played 20 games during Miami Heat's historic 2023 playoff run, including beating the first-seed Bucks in five games.

Searching for a new PG

Another trade rumor was put up by Marc Stein, who said in his show that the Bucks are hoping to get the services of former MVP Derrick Rose.

This is not the first time Rose was linked to Milwaukee. He was reportedly among the targets of the team when the mid-season trade opened. It is said that they are looking for a pure point guard to help and complement Jrue Holiday.

If this signing happens, Rose will join a stacked PG rotation. Holiday is expected to stay while Jevon Carter's stock is rising as a great rotation guy.

Milwaukee will come into the new season with a slightly different look after firing coach Mike Budenholzer and signing Adrian Griffin from the Toronto Raptors.
