Milwaukee Bucks Receive: Kyrie Irving
Brooklyn Nets Receive: Jrue Holiday, Donte DiVincenzo, DJ Wilson, 2021 1st Round Pick
The Milwaukee Bucks recently acquired Jrue Holiday from the New Orleans Pelicans in a trade during the offseason. If they are acquiring Irving, it seems obvious that the Nets would need Holiday back in the deal. They could also ask for a few more assets from the Bucks.
Donte DiVincenzo and DJ Wilson are two bench players who would be nice depth pieces for a contending team like the Brooklyn Nets. They have been just that during their time in Milwaukee.
In this scenario, Brooklyn would also get a first-round pick in 2021. This is certainly beneficial given what they had to give up for Harden to help make up for their now depleted cabinet of NBA Draft assets.
Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal centered around Kyrie Irving would help both the Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks.
