The Milwaukee Bucks' decision to cut Damian Lillard and sign Myles Turner is the biggest surprise thus far in NBA free agency, a stunning roster move with widespread ramifications for a franchise trying to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo in town long term.

Lillard was reportedly not informed about the Bucks' decision before news broke. As if that wasn't a bad enough look, NBA insider Chris Haynes reported that the team denied the nine-time All-Star's request to rehab from the injury in Portland, where his family still resides.

Myles Turner has agreed to a four-year, $107 million contract with the Milwaukee Bucks, according to ESPN's Shams Charania, taking arguably the top available center off the market in the NBA’s 2025 free agency period.
