Matthew Dellavedova nearing deal with Bucks

The Milwaukee Bucks are nearing a four-year, $38 million agreement with restricted free agent guard Matthew Dellavedova.

What It Means:

Apparently, coming off the Cleveland Cavaliers bench pays off. Dellavedova was replaced in the rotation by Mo Williams in the postseason, so this is a pretty good amount of money for the 25-year-old Aussie. The Bucks have stated their desire to have someone on the perimeter who can defend other point guards, so there's a decent chance that he winds up starting for Milwaukee.

Dellavedova averaged 7.5 points and 4.4 assists in 24.6 minutes per game on a .527 true shooting percentage this season. He ranked 84th with a -0.4 nERD during the year.
