Bucks: resolve the Kuzma's enigma

[jayjaysee]

I still really like Giddey for Kuz/min/2031 first.. the longer Chicago refuses to pay Giddey, the more I like it for Chicago..

But I think Milwaukee should sit still looking at most of the realistic options and the cost of them. Midseason or at the draft next year there will be more options

Giddey alongside Giannis is a questionable fit at best and would be that much riskier considering the Bucks would have to cash in our 1 future first before we could combine it with 2 more come draft day.

That said...if Horst were making this kind of bold play (or for Kuminga)...it very well might happen leak-free like the Myles Turner and Dame deals did.

I would not do that deal for Kuminga. But Giddey wouldn’t hesitate. The fit looks better with Turner and all the shooters on the roster.

And Giddey will very likely be an asset that can be traded if Mil can upgrade..

Probably has been mentioned, but DeRozan for Kuzma?
Sacramento shakes it up, add better positional fit and some athleticism, open up space for Clifford. Bucks get another ball handler.

Imo, Buck would have to add something minor, something they don't have. Maybe a pick swap in 2031, given it's the Kings.

I could easily see the Kings targeting Kuzma as a backup plan to Kuminga.

They've got way too many guards even before signing Westbrook while Keegan needs help up front.

However the Bucks board seems mostly on the same page that DeRozan and Malik Monk would be bad fits.

Think if a deal goes down it'd be more likely to be a multi-team trade.
