Restricted free agent Jeff Teague on Thursday signed a four-year offer sheet with the Milwaukee Bucks. San Antonio Spurs guard Gary Neal or Sacramento Kings guard Jimmer Fredette could be the Bucks' next target, Sam Amico of Fox Sports reports.
Teague signed a four-year offer sheet worth $32 million, according to USA Today Sports. The decision to sign Teague presumably ends guard Brandon Jennings' stint in Milwaukee, if the offer sheet isn't met.
The Atlanta Hawks have three days to match Milwaukee's offer to Teague.
Although Atlanta hasn't decided whether to match the offer, Teague wasted no time in expressing his hope to play in Milwaukee and rejoin his former coach, Larry Drew.
"(Milwaukee) was a perfect situation for me, being familiar with the coaching staff and talking to them on the phone," Teague told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "They embraced me and they wanted me. They told me that. That is something I never really heard (from Atlanta).
"Once somebody said they actually wanted me to be a part of their future, I'm all for it."
Teague is coming off his best season, averaging 14.6 points and 7.2 assists per game.
In a move to seemingly revamp its entire backcourt, Milwaukee is also reportedly pursuing the acquisition of either Neal or Fredette.
"Meanwhile, once the market settles down, the Bucks could make a play for san Antonio Spurs guard Gary Neal or Sacramento Kings guard Jimmer Fredette, sources said," Amico wrote on Tuesday. "Fredette is clearly available, with the Kings seemingly expecting little but a late draft pick or two in return."
