What happened: The Bucks announced Jaime Jaquez Jr. will wear No. 24, per the team's own account. Jaquez arrived in the same trade that sent Giannis Antetokounmpo to Miami.
Why it matters: The number assignment marks Jaquez settling into a Bucks roster that turned over almost entirely after the Giannis deal, which also brought Milwaukee draft assets used on Nate Ament and Brayden Burries. It's a small but concrete step in the franchise's rebuild heading into 2026-27.
What to watch: Jaquez heads into Bucks offseason activities wearing No. 24, with training camp for the 2026-27 season still ahead.
