With the turnaround they’ve had in 2024-25, Milwaukee is being active on the trade market. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported that Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis are available for trade. Windhorst noted that the Bucks want an “impact player” in return. Will Milwaukee get a trade done before the deadline on February 6?

Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat have only continued their staring contest since he first requested a trade earlier this month. The Phoenix Suns have been the team most linked to Butler, but making a trade between them would be complicated.

The Milwaukee Bucks are mostly deprived of draft capital but aren't completely out of it. They still have one first-round pick to dangle in a trade. If the Bucks plan to use it, they must use it wisely.
