The Milwaukee Bucks are keeping forward Taurean Prince for another campaign. The veteran agreed to a two-year, $7.1 million deal to stay in Milwaukee.

The contract includes a player option for the second season, per team sources. Prince will return as a floor-spacing wing with playoff experience and solid production.

 Taurean Prince Earns Another Contract

 Taurean Prince played a valuable role for the Bucks during the 2024-25 season. He averaged 8.2 points while shooting nearly 44 percent from deep. The 31-year-old appeared in 80 games and started in 73 of them. His consistency helped Milwaukee manage injuries throughout the long regular season stretch.

Although his playoff numbers dipped during the Indiana series, Milwaukee still sees value. His shooting and positional versatility remain important pieces for their system. Prince provides depth, toughness and a reliable outside shot off the bench. His fit next to Giannis Antetokounmpo still holds strong.

Milwaukee Keeps Core Intact

Re-signing Taurean Prince signals the Bucks are focused on roster continuity. Despite a disappointing playoff run, Milwaukee is doubling down on proven contributors. Keeping key veterans like Prince gives the team stability entering training camp. He knows the system and has chemistry with the coaching staff and teammates.

The Bucks also retain flexibility with the second-year player option included. If things don’t work out, both sides can revisit the partnership next offseason. For now, Milwaukee adds a trusted piece to its rotation at a team-friendly price. That matters as they continue to navigate cap concerns and title aspirations.

Final Thoughts

 Taurean Prince’s return might not make headlines, but it matters to Milwaukee. His size, shooting, and experience fill gaps that many teams struggle to address. He won’t be a primary scoring option, but he doesn’t need to be one. His ability to space the floor and defend multiple positions still carries weight.

Milwaukee continues to move carefully with its offseason decisions. Re-signing Prince is a calculated move that fits the current roster direction. This deal ensures that the Bucks keep a reliable veteran presence on the wing. It’s another small but steady step in maintaining their championship window.
