MILWAUKEE — For a “small-market team,” the Milwaukee Bucks are no strangers to paying top dollar in player salaries.
One or more Bucks have ranked among the NBA’s 25 highest-paid players in each of the last five seasons, according to ESPN.
And 2024-25 will make it six seasons running.
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard are tied for the 12th-highest salaries. Each player is scheduled to make $48.8 million.
Milwaukee is one of seven NBA franchises with two or more players in the top 25. The other teams are Dallas, Indiana, Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota, Philadelphia, and Phoenix.
