Milwaukee needs more offensive firepower, though. Khris Middleton is sadly over the hill. The Bucks have also been looking to move Bobby Portis. Finding a deal for Middelton and Portis could involve acquiring a superstar from the Chicago Bulls, according to a brand new report from Bleacher Report’s Zach Buckley.
One player who could be worth trading the final first-round pick for is Zach LaVine. The Chicago Bulls guard is an All-Star-caliber player, but he’s also commonly regarded as overpaid, as he’s in the third of a five-year, $215.6 million contract.
LaVine is having one of his best seasons, averaging 24 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game while shooting a scorching 44.6 percent from three and 56 percent inside the arc. Those numbers aren’t empty calories—he’s an elite shot-maker who could provide exactly what Milwaukee needs.
Besides rookie Matas Buzelis – not that he’s completely untouchable – Karnisovas would be willing to part with anyone on the roster if they felt it would make the Bulls a better product long term
NEW YORK — A Bulls-Magic matchup is part of a group of games being rescheduled by the NBA. The Bulls-Magic game originally scheduled to be played on March 12 in Orlando has been moved to March 6.
While the Milwaukee Bucks would love to upgrade their roster via a trade heading into deadline season, there's a major problem with any deal coming to fruition.
The Milwaukee Bucks have been under a constant spotlight ... And it seems like a Chicago Bulls star could be a possible solution. Meanwhile, the Chicago Bulls are not in a great spot in the ...
In this new trade proposal, the Bucks do land an All-Star, grabbing Zach LaVine from the rival Chicago Bulls. The deal would be a three-team trade between the Bucks, Bulls, and Detroit Pistons. Using the Spotrac trade machine and abiding by CBA rules, here is what the deal could look like:
The Milwaukee Bucks head to Intuit Dome to face the LA Clippers in a non-conference matchup. The Bucks are 25-17, which puts them in fourth place in the Eastern Conference. The Clippers are 24-19, which puts them in sixth place in the Western Conference.
The Milwaukee Bucks are currently the fourth team in the East, but they know it’ll take a lot of work to crack the top three, especially with how fierce the competition is this year. That means they are willing to make a splash before the upcoming trade deadline and improve their roster.
All reports indicate that the Bucks are willing to shake up their roster to prepare for a deep playoff run. Khris Middleton is fully on the table, as are Bobby Portis Jr. and Pat Connaughton.
