BadgerFan Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 And forward Josh Childress, who started the trend of NBA players going overseas last season by signing with Greek power Olympiacos for three years and $20 million, will visit the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, according to his agent, Jim Tanner. Childress can return to the NBA, but his rights would still be owned by the Atlanta Hawks, who drafted him in 2004, as a restricted free agent -- meaning the Hawks could match any offer from other teams for Childress. But Childress has not yet decided whether to stay in Greece for a second season or come back to the NBA. Childress does not want to return to the Hawks, however. The Bucks, who drafted point guard Brandon Jennings last week, are in desperate need of making another splash after trading Richard Jefferson to the Spurs last week and not tendering free agent forward Charlie Villanueva, who was in Detroit Wednesday talking with the Pistons. From David Aldridge at NBA.com What would you think of this move for the Bucks? Personally, I would love this move. He's 26 years old, he's a pretty good shooter and great defender, he's young, got talent. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
