Solid all-around effort in SL loss
Markovic amassed 10 points (4-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks across 28 minutes in Monday's 95-89 California Classic Summer League loss to the Kings.
Analysis
Markovic struggled from beyond the arc once again, though he still scored in double figures and was one of four Milwaukee players to do so. The 20-year-old big man also showcased his passing and rebounding abilities, leading the Bucks in both rebounds and assists. Additionally, he filled up the stat sheet on the defensive end, closing as one of three Bucks players with four combined steals-plus-blocks.

Sits Sunday
Markovic (undisclosed) didn't play in Sunday's 89-69 California Classic Summer League loss to the Nets.
Analysis
After posting 16 points (8-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 25 minutes during the Bucks' 97-83 win over Warriors Blue on Saturday at the California Classic Summer League, Markovic sat out the second leg of a back-to-back-to-back set. The 2025 second-round pick didn't report to the Bucks last season, but he could be part of their 2026-27 plans, especially after trading away Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee).

Logs 16 points in Summer League
Markovic recorded 16 points (8-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 25 minutes during the Bucks' 97-83 win over the Warriors Blue on Saturday at the California Classic Summer League.
Analysis
Markovic scored 10 of his 16 points in the second half and led all Bucks starters while finishing as the team's second-leading scorer behind Brandon Boston (17 points). Markovic signed a second-round pick exception with the Bucks on Wednesday and will likely see most of his playing time in the G League with the Wisconsin Herd during the 2026-27 season.
