The Bucks knew before they drafted him that he wouldnt play for them. I believe Yi's people banned the Bucls from practices and he refused to work out for them. They drafted him anyways. Their loss.
An I read an article where the main reason he doesn't want to play there is because the Bucks coach is a royal ass and no one likes playing for him so the other players told him to steer clear and go to another team
Actually, It's reported that Yi has issued an announcement that his agent has always fully represent his intentions towards being transferred, though I suspect about the autheticity.
As lame as it sounds my theory is that it has to do with the uniform. China is big on red?no? and Jersey sales will be through the roof when this guy lands a team so why no ginger the deal by putting in an appealing jersey that has red like Yao and the rockets? instead of a wierd looking purple. So my prediction is that he'll go teams like bulls, pistons, heat, blazers etc if capping permits.
