Jones posted 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt), nine assists, three rebounds and one steal over 24 minutes during the Bucks' 110-91 Summer League win over the Hornets on Wednesday.
Jones was one of four Bucks starters to score exactly 11 points, each of whom connected on three three-pointers in Wednesday's win. The 2025 second-rounder also got his teammates involved and was one assist shy of recording a double-double. Jones inked a two-way deal with the Bucks in early July after being waived by the Pacers. He appeared in 37 regular-season games (seven starts) for Indiana last season and averaged 16.6 minutes per game. The Summer League, training camp and preseason will all serve as Jones' audition for a consistent role in the Bucks' rotation for the 2026-27 campaign.

Bucks' Nate Ament: Strong showing in SL win
Rotowire
Ament registered 23 points (7-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, two steals and one assist across 25 minutes in Wednesday's 110-91 Summer League win over Charlotte.
Ament broke through offensively, leading Milwaukee in scoring during a double-digit victory. Wednesday's outing was an encouraging step forward for the No. 13 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft after he was held to single figures in each of his first three Summer League appearances. The Tennessee product is considered a raw prospect, but Ament figures to receive significant opportunities during his rookie campaign with a rebuilding Bucks squad.

Bucks' Kasparas Jakucionis: Won't play due to rest
Rotowire
Jakucionis (rest) isn't playing in Wednesday's Summer League contest against the Hornets, according to Eric Nehm of The Athletic.
Jakucionis is expected to operate as a backup option in the Bucks backcourt after he was acquired in the trade that sent Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) to Miami. The second-year guard will aim to return to the hardwood when the Bucks play their next Summer League game over the weekend. Jakucionis is averaging 9.0 points and 5.0 assists per game in two Summer League appearances.

Rotowire
Burries (rest) is not playing in Wednesday's Summer League game against the Hornets, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Burries, Kasparas Jakucionis and Cormac Ryan are all sidelined for Wednesday's contest. The rest of the Summer League schedule has yet to be finalized, but Burries and the Bucks figure to play their next game Saturday against a team to be announced.
Bucks' Bogoljub Markovic: Sinks four triples in SL loss
Rotowire
Markovic supplied 16 points (5-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block across 27 minutes in Monday's 95-88 Summer League loss to the Suns.
After missing his first three attempts from beyond the arc, Markovic knocked down each of his final four three-point tries and finished as Milwaukee's second-leading scorer. He also tied for the team lead in rebounds. The 2025 second-round pick is far from guaranteed a consistent role for the Bucks in 2026-27 and may spend time with the club's G League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd, as he continues to develop his three-point shot and overall game.

Bucks' Brayden Burries: Full stat line in SL loss
Rotowire
Burries racked up 23 points (8-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-7 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, four steals and one block across 29 minutes in Monday's 95-88 Summer League loss to the Suns.
After scoring 26 points in the front end of this back-to-back set, Burries impressed yet again Monday. Although he struggled at the charity stripe, the rookie No. 10 overall pick turned in an efficient performance from the field and led all players in scoring, assists and steals while tying the team high in rebounds. The Arizona product has scored at least 18 points in all three of his Las Vegas Summer League appearances thus far, totaling 14 rebounds, 12 assists, seven steals and three blocks in those outings.
Bucks' Brayden Burries: Scores game-high 26 points in loss
Rotowire
Burries provided 26 points (9-16 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks across 30 minutes during Sunday's 90-80 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Spurs.
After going 1-for-5 from beyond the arc in his Las Vegas Summer League debut, Burries caught fire Sunday, knocking down 80.0 percent of his attempts from deep. He again led the Bucks in scoring and didn't commit a single turnover in 30 minutes.

Bucks' Nate Ament: Scores seven points on seven shots
Rotowire
Ament accounted for seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds and three turnovers in 25 minutes during Sunday's 90-80 Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Spurs.
Ament has been relatively quiet through his first two games in Las Vegas, scoring in single digits with modest contributions elsewhere. It'll be interesting to see if he plays Monday against the Suns, with that game being the second in a back-to-back set.

Bucks' Gary Trent: Re-signs with Milwaukee
Rotowire
Trent (oblique) signed a four-year, $64 million contract with the Bucks on Saturday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Trent declined his player option with the Bucks for 2026-27 but will now return to the club on a long-term deal. He's spent the last two seasons with Milwaukee and averaged 8.1 points, 1.2 assists and 1.0 rebounds across 21.2 minutes per game in 65 regular-season appearances (21 starts) last season.
Bucks' Kasparas Jakucionis: Scores 11 points in SL loss Friday
Rotowire
Jakucionis finished with 11 points (2-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal over 21 minutes in Friday's 119-86 Summer League loss to Miami.
Jakucionis played sparingly throughout his inaugural 2025-26 NBA season with the Heat. However, the 20-year-old still had sporadic production, averaging 8.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.3 blocks and 0.8 steals while shooting 45.8 percent in 12 regular-season starts. Although Jakucionis has already demonstrated he can play a meaningful role when needed, he could continue to struggle for consistent playing time in Milwaukee. Still, with Tyler Herro (foot) and Kevin Porter (knee) known for durability issues, the door is open for Jakucionis to carve out a path to playing time.

Bucks' Cormac Ryan: Team-high eight boards in return
Rotowire
Ryan (undisclosed) posted seven points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 22 minutes during Friday's 119-86 Summer League loss to the Heat.
After sitting out two of Milwaukee's three California Classic game Summer League contests, Ryan returned to the floor Friday and pulled down a team-high eight boards. Ryan is under a two-way deal with the Bucks and should see the bulk of his playing time with the G League's Wisconsin Herd in 2026-27.

Bucks' Brayden Burries: Paces Milwaukee in SL loss
Rotowire
Burries posted 18 points (6-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 22 minutes in Friday's 119-86 Summer League loss to the Heat.
Burries dropped 16 points on 5-of-11 shooting from the field in the first half, though he struggled in the third quarter and didn't see the floor in the fourth. The rookie guard still finished as Milwaukee's leading scorer and was one of three Bucks players to score in double figures. He's scored at least 12 points in both of his appearances this summer, though he's shot just 2-for-9 from beyond the arc thus far.

Bucks' Nate Ament: Starting Friday
Rotowire
Ament (undisclosed) is in the starting lineup for Friday's Summer League game against the Heat, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel.
The Bucks held the rookie first-rounder out of California Classic Summer League play, but Ament is ready to roll Friday. He'll have a chance to showcase himself and play a featured role for as long as Milwaukee keeps him available this summer.
Nance signed a two-year deal with the Bucks on Thursday, Jake Fischer of BleacherReport.com reports.
This will be a minimum deal for Nance with a team option for the second season. Across 47 regular-season appearances with the Bucks in 2025-26, Nance averaged 5.4 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.7 minutes per contest.
