Hakim Warrick, an athletic 6-foot-9 forward who played the past four seasons with the Memphis Grizzlies, has reached agreement with the Bucks on a one-year deal, sources indicated Friday.
Warrick averaged 11.6 points and 5.0 rebounds while appearing in all 82 games for the Grizzlies last season, primarily in a bench role.
The Grizzlies withdrew their qualifying offer to Warrick last week, making him an unrestricted free agent. A number of teams showed interest in Warrick, including the Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers and Charlotte Bobcats.
well i guess it's time for Cleveland to get their Joe Smith on

Good signing. I like what the Bucks have done this offseason. Get rid of as many long-term contracts as possible and sign players to reasonable deals. And if they do suck this upcoming season, they have a great chance at getting someone like Wall/Favors in the draft.
Better to suck and shed salary than stay near the luxury tax and be mediocre.
if we dont get Joe Smith back i think an underrated guy to get would be Brian Skinner. He's basically Joe Smith but half an inch shorter, but with a cool beard.

The Bucks had plenty of opportunities to get away from the luxury tax level but they didn't. They're right up against it. They probably won't be able to match any offers for Sessions due to it.
