The Milwaukee Bucks appear to be inclined to cut Tyler Smith ahead of opening night, ending his time with the team just one year after drafting him.
Smith's last game in a Milwaukee Bucks jersey may have been against the Pistons last Thursday. If so, the franchise would be giving up on a promising draft pick after only one season.
There is reason to believe they will cut him, as his preseason minutes have decreased significantly, from 13 in the first game to none in the last two contests.
He is a floor spacing big with impressive athleticism and still just 20 years old.
With opening night less than a week away and other players stepping up, Smith's fate in Milwaukee seems all but decided.
