The Bucks will be a nice landing spot for him. Good for Sam.

Congratulations Sam, this could not happen to a better person. The bucks will be a good fit for him. I do believe he will make an impact and make the roster. So excited for him. Nice to see an aggie player drafted.

How does 1.5 years guaranteed work? They can cut him halfway in the season?

In theory yes. Or they can just not bring him back on for season 2 and he gets to keep the 1/2 season salary. If they want to keep him on the team for the full year 2 they have to pony up a full year guarantee. Similar to guys that come up on 10 day contracts. They can put them on 10 days I think twice or three times before deciding to guarantee them money from then on.

At least, that's my assumption.

The Bucks trading for the pick is a good sign of them wanting him.

Cool details:
Last Aggie drafted was in the sixth round. When there were a lot fewer DI teams, a lot fewer Europeans and very few underclassmen. This pick is much better.
Guaranteed money within 30 minutes is soooo much better than the Undrafted free agent route.
The Bucks are a solid organization.
Many of the posters on the board have increased their interest in the NBA.

They can cut him at any time they want but they will still have to pay him for the sum of a year and a half on that contract.

Not a bad contract to start for Sam. I think he will prove himself and be able to secure some back up gigs for several years in the league. So happy for him.

When will Sam Merrill Milwaukee jerseys be available? I'm in.

I'm committed to making Milwaukee my second favorite NBA team forever.

I think that he could fill a Kyle Korver or JJ Reddick role for teams (although Korver is a bit bigger than him, played a 3guard, and could defend bigger guys).

I also think that an NBA diet and NBA exercise regiment will likely help him become a bit more athletic too.

For reals tho. As soon as someone spots a Sam Merril bucks jersey it NEEDS to be a post on here immediately. I want one. New favorite team by far.
