Adding Gary Trent Jr. should change how we look at Bucks' offseason

Trent, 25, is a versatile wing who can light it up from the perimeter. Last season, he shot 39.3% from deep on 6.4 attempts per game. He can also score off the dribble, create his own shot and defend multiple positions. He's the ideal role player for a team that was craving reliable floor spacing. 

Most importantly, Trent provides much-needed insurance for Khris Middleton, who has struggled to remain healthy over the past two seasons. Milwaukee now has two high-level movement shooters who are also highly effective when spotting up. Doc Rivers can develop some interesting substitution patterns to ensure there's always a catch-and-shoot threat on the court when Giannis Antetokounmpo is in the game. 

Milwaukee ranked 11th in three-point percentage last season, converting 37.3% of its attempts. Nevertheless, its spacing often proved to be an issue, especially when Giannis and Damian Lillard shared the court. 

Trent's addition repositions the Bucks as a serious threat in the East. What was emerging as a disastrous summer has quickly turned into a masterclass on filling out a roster on a tight budget.
