Atlanta matches offer sheet on Teague

July 15, 2013 By Bill Scott

The Atlanta Hawks threw a wrench in the Milwaukee Bucks plans at point guard over the weekend.

Milwaukee signed restricted free agent Jeff Teague to a 4-year, $32-million offer sheet late last week.  Since Teague was a restricted free agent, the Hawks then had 72-hours to match the offer.  Saturday they did just that.

Teague averaged over 14-points and 7-assists a game last season for the Hawks playing under then Atlanta and current Milwaukee head coach Larry Drew.  The move also signified the Bucks intentions to move past Brandon Jennings, who is a restricted free agent of their own.

It’s hard to say what Milwaukee will do now.  Jennings is still on the market but it is safe to assume that his relationship with the Bucks is tarnished with the attempt to get Teague.  Jennings is a restricted free agent, so the Bucks will have the option to match any offer he would receive.  So far this off-season, Milwaukee has added a trio of guards in Luke Ridnour, O.J Mayo, and Carlos Delfino.

Bucks sign Jeff Teague to an offer sheet

July 11, 2013 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Bucks appear to be moving forward without Brandon Jennings.  Wednesday, Milwaukee signed Atlanta restricted free agent PG Jeff Teague to a 4-year, $32-million offer sheet.  Because Teague is restricted, Atlanta will have 3-days to match the offer.

Teague is coming off the best year of his 4-year career, all with Atlanta.  He averaged over 14-points and 7-assists playing under current Milwaukee Head Coach Larry Drew.

As for Jennings, this move doesn’t rule out a return.  However, if the offer is not matched by Atlanta, it will be tough for the Bucks to come up with money to sign him.  Earlier this week it was reported that he was seeking nearly $12-million per season.  Jennings is also a restricted free agent.

Wednesday marked the first day that moves made since the July 1st “negotiating period” could become official.
