The Bucks are pursuing Gary Trent Jr. in free agency, per @ShamsCharania (nytimes.com/athletic/56380…).

More on this storyline
Michael Grange: A note on Gary Trent Jr. who remains unsigned. My understanding is Raptors didn’t want to go much beyond $15 million a season on any new deal while GTJ was looking for something north of where he ended last season ($18.5 million in final year of 3yr deal for $52 million). -via Twitter @michaelgrange / July 8, 2024
Gary Trent Jr. and Spencer Dinwiddie are two names to watch for if the Lakers clear enough space to use their taxpayer midlevel exception, according to league sources. -via New York Times / July 7, 2024
What makes sense has changed. It’s becoming eminently clear that the world where Gary Trent Jr. — on paper an enticing commodity as a 25-year-old who has shot nearly 39 per cent from three on a high volume for his career — makes anything close to the $18.6 million he earned last season no longer exists. There is real doubt that Trent Jr. will even be offered a deal for the mid-level exception — by definition the NBA’s average salary amount and which starts at $12.5 million for the 2024-25 season. Trent Jr. is almost certainly headed towards becoming an NBA ‘have not’ rather than a member of its upper-middle class, where his last contract had him pegged. -via SportsNet / July 1, 2024
Milwaukee is also among several contenders pursuing the top free agent remaining, Gary Trent Jr., league sources said. Trent, the 25-year-old who averaged 13.7 points on 39.3 percent 3-point shooting for Toronto last season, is taking a patient approach to find the best opportunity for his seventh NBA campaign. -via New York Times / July 15, 2024
Harrison Wind: You can rule out Gary Trent Jr. as an option for the Nuggets in free agency, I’m told. He’s not going to take a minimum contract and I don’t think there would be much interest on Denver’s end anyway. -via Twitter @HarrisonWind / July 12, 2024
