The “People’s Champ,” Bobby Portis, is back with the Milwaukee Bucks on a two-year contract, worth $9 million total, as first reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
It is incredibly welcoming news to see the big man returning after there was much skepticism amongst the fanbase that Portis would leave for more money elsewhere. And for all intents and purposes, he absolutely could have sought out a much more desirable deal!
Portis signed a two-year contract worth $8 million in the previous offseason, which was also seen as a massive bargain.
