The Milwaukee Bucks' decision to cut Damian Lillard and sign Myles Turner is the biggest surprise thus far in NBA free agency, a stunning roster move with widespread ramifications for a franchise trying to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo in town long term.

The move from Milwaukee makes Lillard a rare star-level free agent who could sign for as little as the veteran's minimum. Several reports indicated that Lillard is thrilled to be getting out of Milwaukee (while getting his full payment) in a way that lets him choose his next destination.

Tuesday morning saw the Milwaukee Bucks move off of nine-time NBA All-Star Damian Lillard in favor of signing Pacers center Myles Turner— leading to one of the league's biggest names hitting the open market.
