According to Jake Weinbach, Portis is expected to execute the player option this summer, or break out of signing a long contract with the Bucks.

Portis has one last season left in his contract with the Bucks, but next season is a $13.4 million player option, and he can jump out of the contract and enter the free market this summer. Jake Weinbach believes Portis is loved by Bucks fans.

Due to taking banned drugs, Portis was suspended for 25 games this season. He played 49 games in the regular season, averaging 25.3 minutes per game, scoring 13.9 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists, with shooting percentages of 46.6%, 36.5%, and 83.6% respectively in the three events.

In the playoffs, Portis played 5 games, averaging 14 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists per 31.6 minutes per game, with shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentages of 44.1% and 35.7% respectively.
