According to reports from ESPN authoritative reporter Shams Charania, a league source revealed to him that the Milwaukee Bucks had reached an agreement with Taurean Prince, a striker who had just become a free agent. Prince received a two-year contract renewal from the Bucks with a total amount of $7.1 million. Prince's agent Rich Paul negotiated a contract with the Bucks, which included player options in the second year part of the contract, Shams said.

In the NBA regular season last season, Prince played a total of 80 games in 82 games, averaging 27.1 minutes per game, averaging 8.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.2 blocks, and 1 turnover and 2.1 fouls. He shot 45.7%, three-point shooting percentage 43.9%, and 81.3% free throw shooting percentage. In the playoffs, Prince played 5 games in total, with averaging 12.2 minutes per game, with averaging 1.2 points, 1 rebound, 1.6 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1 turnover and 0.6 fouls. His shooting percentage was 20% and his three-point shooting percentage was 22.2%.

Prince performed well in the regular season last season. He still showed good shooting ability and he is still a very excellent pitcher. However, Prince's performance on the defensive end is actually not ideal, and his actual defensive effect is relatively poor. Prince's performance during the playoffs was simply disaster-like. His offensive efficiency was a mess, his three-point shooting percentage was terrible, he was completely unable to show his value on the offensive end, and his performance on the defensive end was also very disappointing. Therefore, Prince's playing time during the playoffs has been greatly reduced, and he has also been greatly reduced in terms of playing time, which also shows that the team's coaching staff also disagrees with his performance.

Prince is actually a seriously overrated player. Although he looks good in statistics, his influence on the game on the court is very limited, and he will have a huge impact on the team on the defensive end. In the playoffs, Prince's poor performance also proves that he is not a player who is good at fighting tough battles. The Bucks have previously given out several great value contracts, including Bobby Portis, Gary Trent Jr. and Kevin Porter Jr., all of which are absolutely great value contracts, which can be said to have saved the team a lot of money. As for Prince's contract renewal, although it seems that the contract amount is not high, he obviously cannot provide enough support to the team. I don't know what Prince will perform next season.
