For Milwaukee Bucks guard Gary Trent Jr., it’s pretty lucrative.

“Free agent guard Gary Trent Jr. has agreed to a four-year, $64 million deal to stay with the Milwaukee Bucks, Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul and agent Lucas Newton tells ESPN,” NBA Insider Shams Charania wrote on his official X account on Saturday. ” … The Bucks and Trent’s reps worked through negotiations since the NBA Finals ended in mid-June while also sorting through sign-and-trade possibilities from interested teams over the last week.
