Yi was initially reluctant to sign with which NBA team?

  • Los Angeles Clippers

  • Milwaukee Bucks

  • New York Knicks

  • Cleveland Cavaliers

Answer

The Milwaukee Bucks were initially Yi Jianlian's team of choice, but he hesitated due to concerns over playing time and development. The Bucks already had several established big men on their roster, including Andrew Bogut and Jamaal Magloire, and Yi worried about limited opportunities to showcase his skills. Additionally, he had reservations about the team's overall competitiveness and long-term prospects.
