The Milwaukee Bucks made moves in the offseason in hopes of finally getting over the hump it into the NBA Finals. They have been the best team in the league over the last two years but have been unable to make that jump. They are hoping this is the year and they could take a step closer if they make a move at the NBA trade deadline.
Milwaukee made the biggest move when they signed Giannis Antetokounmpo to a five-year, supermax extension. This will keep the back-to-back MVP in a Bucks’ uniform long-term. The Bucks made a trade with the New Orleans Pelicans to acquire a veteran point guard in Jrue Holiday.
This is a position they needed to improve coming into the season and they did in a big way. Milwaukee looks ready for another deep playoff run and it could continue if they add another shooter on the perimeter around Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jrue Holiday, and Khris Middleton.
The shooter could be one of the most underrated from the Cleveland Cavaliers. In Cleveland, Collin Sexton and Darius Garland are making a ton of noise along with their combination of big men down low.
Veterans like Andre Drummond and Kevin Love are still in Cleveland but it could also be on their way out. Cedi Osman would be in interesting option for the bucks to go after. Osman is shooting 35.8% percent from three-point range this season.
Osman is used to playing on good teams during his time in Cleveland when they had LeBron James. Here is a deal that could land him on a contending team sooner than later.
