Hours After Jimmy Butler?s ?Tampering? Allegations, Ex-lakers Star Reacts to the Bucks Betraying 2X NBA All-Star For?Damian?Lillard

A fiery point guard known for his fierce defense has not been shy in sharing his thoughts on a recent blockbuster transaction. While the Milwaukee Bucks pulled off an unexpected coup by signing Damian Lillard, the 35-year-old guard points out the huge loss that might influence the Bucks’ championship chances.

The ex-Lakers star expressed his disappointment on social media where likes of Jimmy Butler have made some serious allegations against the Bucks.

Ex-Lakers Star worried for the Bucks

The Miami Heat were generally expected to sign Lillard, while the Toronto Raptors were also in the race to acquire the seven-time All-Star. However, in an unexpected turn of events, Lillard found himself in Milwaukee as part of a three-team deal. In this trade, the Bucks parted ways with two of their major contributors, Jrue Holiday and Grayson Allen.

While Lillard’s great scoring talent clearly enhanced the Bucks’ offensive firepower, Patrick Beverley an ex Lakers Star raised reservations over Jrue Holiday’s departure. Holiday has been named to the All-Defensive First or Second Team in five of the previous six seasons. That’s why Beverley took to social media to convey his displeasure about this incident. He posted a tweet that said, “Losing Jrue is Big. That?s all imma say.”?

Jrue Holiday was more than simply a defensive mainstay for the Milwaukee Bucks. He helped them win their long-awaited NBA title in 2020-21. His ability to contain opponents and contribute on both ends of the floor was critical to the team’s success. Due to Holiday’s loss, the Bucks might have traded off their trump card.
