Latest News about Gary Trent Jr.
The NBA confirmed it had opened a salary cap circumvention investigation into the Milwaukee Bucks and Trent over his July 2026 contract. The probe focuses on the four-year, $64 million deal, which many observers found surprising given his 2025-26 production. The league's collective bargaining agreement prohibits prearranged deals intended to bypass cap rules.
Trent, an unrestricted free agent, re-signed with the Milwaukee Bucks on a fully guaranteed four-year, $64 million contract after turning down a $3.88 million player option earlier in the offseason. The deal was announced through his agents, Rich Paul and Lucas Newton, and was reported as one of the largest contracts of that free agency period.
