NBA Trade Deadline: 5 contenders who should crash the Anthony Davis sweepstakes
Milwaukee Bucks
Far-fetch maybe, but this would change the city of Milwaukee and the franchise forever. The Eastern Conference, for the first year since he was drafted, is without LeBron James, so in other words, one spot for the NBA Finals is wide open.
If this was the World Series of Poker, the Bucks should be all-in.
Milwaukee record: 35-13, T-1st in the East
Milwaukee receives: Anthony Davis and E’Twaun Moore
New Orleans receives: Khris Middleton, Tony Snell, Thon Maker, Malcolm Brogdon, and a 2020 2nd Round Draft Pick
The Bucks have Ersan Ilyasova, Brook Lopez and a draft pick or two that could save them some talent, but Thon Maker is a goner. Middleton and Brogdon would be the assets in this deal, but Brogdon may leave in free agency unless he gets an extension.
