The Milwaukee Bucks are adding Argentinian guard Luca Vildoza on a 2-year contract, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

The deadline for teams to add playoff-eligible players comes on Apr. 10, meaning Vildoza will be able to suit up with his new club in the postseason.

The 26-year-old signed his first contract with the New York Knicks after last season ended, but the team released Vildoza ahead of the new campaign following a foot injury. As a result, he's yet to make his NBA debut.

Vildoza put together a solid career in Europe before making the move stateside, winning the Spanish ACB's Finals MVP in 2020 with Baskonia.

The defending-champion Bucks sit half a game out of the Eastern Conference's No. 2 seed with a 48-30 record.
