Bucks' Off-season Challenge is Keeping Salmons

An important part of the Milwaukee Bucks off-season will be trying to re-sign guard John Salmons.

The Bucks went 22-8 after acquiring Salmons from the Chicago Bulls, and he averaged 20 points a game.

But Salmons will likely opt out of his contract and become a free agent, putting Milwaukee in a possible bidding war.

"Making a decision, a free agent decision, there's a lot that goes into that. Milwaukee is definitely a place I am definitely considering," Salmons said.

"He's a solid player. He can play inside, he can play outside. He can handle the ball, he can find guys, and he can shoot the ball. I mean, he's definitely a solid player, and for this team to continue to improve they definitely need to bring him back," Bucks center Kurt Thomas said.
