Filipino-American guard Kihei Clark’s stint with the Milwaukee Bucks proved to be shortlived.
NBA journalist Keith Smith reported that the team signed the 23-year-old Clark to a training camp deal on October 20 but swiftly released him the following day.
According to Smith, the signed-and-release move on Clark was done to possibly secure the Filipino-American guard for the Bucks’ NBA G-League affiliate team, the Wisconsin Herd.
The Ilocos-native Clark suited up for the Utah Jazz during the 2023 NBA Summer League last July.

A lot of people are asking "Why would Team X waive Player Y after just signing them?"
