Bucks were interested in John Collins?
The Bucks also reportedly internally considered a trade for John Collins, who was moved this week by the Atlanta Hawks to the Utah Jazz. “A team I heard at least had some relatively serious internal discussions about ‘Should we wade into the John Collins thing?'” said Zach Lowe. “And I don’t know if they contacted Atlanta or how serious it got, was Milwaukee. And that’s interesting to me because I do think Milwaukee is looking around for, like, ‘Can we get a little just injection of randomness? An injection of, like, balance and athleticism. And just change. Maybe just change more than anything else. I don’t think it went anywhere serious.

Did a deep dive on John Collins’ fit with the @utahjazz both on the court and financially.
If he can’t shoot, can he still play?
How does his contract change the timeline?
And, were there better options in free agency?

The John Collins trade opened up some options for the Hawks.
The next question is what they decide to do with Rudy Gay.

You’re probably too young to remember but after he signed for 5 years/$82 mil in 2010, Rudy Gay became that decade’s John Collins.
Good player who took heat for signing a contract fit for a great player. On the trading block for years, then dealt for Tayshaun Prince & Ed Davis. – 11:41 PM

His scoring numbers were still down (12.9 ppg) but over his last 20 games of the season John Collins shot a much improved 37% from three on 3.8 attempts per game in Atlanta.
Had shot just 25% over the first 51 games with his insane looking finger injury. pic.twitter.com/QEmUkXxFn4 – 7:20 PM

More on this storyline
For Atlanta, the acquisition of Rudy Gay — who exercised his $6.4 million player option for next season as part of the trade, his agent Sam Permut of Roc Nation Sports told ESPN — allows the Hawks to drop far below the $182.5 million second apron and below the $165 million luxury tax threshold for the 2023-24 season. -via ESPN / June 26, 2023
Michael Pina: Atlanta’s ownership group has never paid the luxury tax -via Twitter @MichaelVPina / June 26, 2023
Evan Sidery: After the Jazz acquired John Collins, only six teams currently project to have $30+ million in cap space for free agency: Rockets Spurs Kings Magic Pacers Pistons -via Twitter @esidery / June 26, 2023
