The Bucks have found their starting shooting guard for next season, and it’s who most everyone was hoping for: former Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. is signing with the Milwaukee Bucks. Per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski:

While we don’t have contract details yet, this is likely to be a veteran’s minimum deal, since that is what Milwaukee can currently offer with a team salary that puts them over the second apron.
