With less than two weeks left before the trade deadline, there's a chance the Milwaukee Bucks could trade one of their players. The latest trade proposal has the Bucks parting ways with center Brook Lopez as many teams are looking for a big man to fortify their lineup.
In this predicted trade, the Milwaukee Bucks land three forwards from the Brooklyn Nets while parting ways with Khris Middleton.
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton have been Bucks teammates for so long that the former can joke about the latter in this manner.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 34 points and 15 rebounds to help the Milwaukee Bucks beat the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers 123-109 on Sunday night.
The Milwaukee Bucks land two wings and a center from the Houston Rockets in this proposed trade. The Bucks send out draft capital and three wings, including a longtime starter.
The Milwaukee Bucks' trade deadline priorities could have changed after the team recently announced the benching of Khris Middleton.
Doc Rivers explains why Khris Middleton was downgraded to the bench on Wednesday, just hours before Milwaukee's win against the Spurs.
Doc Rivers will stick with a starting five of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard, Brook Lopez, Andre Jackson, and Taurean Prince.
Damian Lillard added 25 points for Milwaukee, which completed a 4-0 homestand. Khris Middleton had 13 points and eight assists in 25 minutes off the bench. Brook Lopez added 12 points, and Taurean Prince had 11.
Damian Lillard scored 30 points and Giannis Antetokounmpo had 26 points and 11 rebounds as the Milwaukee Bucks capitalized on a fast start for the second straight night and trounced the Orlando Magic 122-93.
