Cole Anthony has never played for another team in the NBA but the Orlando Magic. After he was traded to, and subsequently released by, the Memphis Grizzlies, Anthony signed with the Milwaukee Bucks. That’s still taking some getting used to for the veteran guard.
“I remember that whole week, it was just crazy,” Anthony said about being traded. “I’ve been here five years, haven’t played for another team, was drafted here, so it’s something for me that definitely is bittersweet and I’m going to miss it.”
Anthony is excited to join the Bucks and to chase a championship.
“I look at it as a great opportunity to enter another team where they have a playoff pedigree and a championship pedigree,” Anthony said. “They’ve won a ‘chip there. I just want to get in there, contribute and do whatever I can for the team. I want to be a part of winning.”
