The Milwaukee Bucks have some big decisions to make in the offseason. For one, they will need to decide on which of their unrestricted free agents to keep and which ones they will need to let go.

Malik Beasley, Patrick Beverley, and Jae Crowder are the three names that could walk away this summer, and given their current financial situation, it does not appear as though the Bucks will not be able to retain the services of all three players for the upcoming season.

According to Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report, the choice comes down between Beasley and Beverley. The analyst argues that Crowder hasn’t really been able to establish himself as a key part of the rotation during his time with the Bucks, meaning that he should be the odd man out among the three.

Buckley goes on to argue that between Beasley and Beverley, he would much rather go for the former:

“Crowder never quite fit the way he should have on paper, so if the Bucks can only afford one, it’d be between Beasley and Beverley. While the latter handled a heavier workload in the playoffs, the former still feels like the preference.

“Beasley’s skill tree may not have many branches, but it’s built around a three-ball that typically runs between warm and red-hot. Since Milwaukee will never have too many spacers around Giannis Antetokounmpo, it makes sense to prioritize the superior shooter,” Buckley wrote.
