Bucks new deal

John Salmons with bucks jersey had an unexpected night off last month in New York.

Salmons’ attention was divided between his Smokehouse burger and watching the Chicago Bulls, the team that told him to stay behind just hours before the trade deadline.For the second time in as many years, Salmons knew he was switching teams midseason. It didn’t take long to figure out he was headed to Milwaukee, and it’s taken him even less time to make an impact.

“We’re not just trying to make the playoffs, we’re trying to move up in the standings,” Salmons said. “If we all stay together, continue to grow, we can only get better and try to make a push.”
