Milwaukee Bucks Reportedly Signing Gary Payton II To Open Roster Spot

The Milwaukee Bucks have navigated most of the season with only two traditional point guards on their roster, but as the playoffs approach it seems as if the team feels the need to add some extra cover.

Shortly after the Bucks announced they had requested waivers on Terrence Jones on Saturday afternoon, Charles Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported the team had identified a replacement to fill their final roster spot.

Bucks will sign Gary Payton Jr. to roster spot on Sunday, according to league source.
