Milwaukee Bucks lose 2022 second-round pick to Bogdan Bogdanovic talks

The Milwaukee Bucks have lost their second round draft pick for 2022 for breaking the rules on the timing of this season’s discussions.

The decision was announced by the NBA after a thorough investigation into the Bucks’ failed sign-and-trade deal to acquire Bogdan Bogdanovic.

The league found that the team had discussions with Bogdanovic and / or his agent before the date when discussions with free agents were allowed.

Ultimately, Bogdanovic signed with the Atlanta Hawks after the Bucks’ failed sign-and-trade deal with the Sacramento Kings.

The NBA said it took into account that Milwaukee was cooperating throughout the investigation, that there was no evidence that Milwaukee had reached an early contract with Bogdanovic, and that the Bucks had not taken him over before the fine was imposed.
