Bucks waive Kevin Porter Jr. as they finalize their roster
The Milwaukee Bucks have waived guard Kevin Porter Jr. after a 2025-26 season in which he led the team in assists per game and ranked second in scoring. The move came ahead of Monday's NBA roster deadline. The Bucks open their season Wednesday at Washington. Porter played just 38 games last season due to injury but was productive when available. He averaged 17.4 points, 7.4 assists, 5.2 rebounds and 2.2 steals.
The Bucks had a surplus of guards as they retool in their first season after the trade of two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat.
