NBA Trade Rumors: One ideal, realistic deadline target for every contender

Milwaukee Bucks

Trade target: Jae Crowder, F, Detroit Pistons

We already know that the Milwaukee Bucks have a championship-level roster. This is a team that just needs to add around the edges and add some depth ahead of the stretch run. Especially with how fragile this team has been over the last year and a half. If the Bucks are going to make a deep run in the playoffs this season, they’re either going to have to remain healthy or add some insurance at the NBA Trade Deadline.

One way they can do that is by moving forward with a rumored deal that they had for Jae Crowder a few weeks ago. The Bucks were interested in P.J. Tucker the last two offseasons and even though Crowder is not Tucker, he’s kind of Tucker-lite.

Crowder would actually be a solid addition to the Bucks. He would give them another body that they can throw at the likes of a Jayson Tatum and Kevin Durant in a seven-game series.
