Milwaukee Bucks NBA Trade Rumors: Everyone on the Market Except for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jabari Parker, Thon Maker and Khris Middleton
The Milwaukee Bucks have already traded Miles Plumlee to the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for Spencer Hawes and Roy Hibbert earlier this month, but they may not be done making moves.
ESPN's Zach Lowe has reported that the Bucks would listen to trade offers on all their players except for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jabari Parker, Thon Maker, and Khris Middleton. He also said they might have a hard time finding trade partners for Greg Monroe.
People may have a hard time pronouncing his name, but Antetokounmpo has emerged as a legitimate most valuable player (MVP) candidate this season. He is undoubtedly one of the best players in the league right now and he's practically untouchable. Parker and Middleton are part of the young core the Bucks want to build around, and they still want to see what Maker can do.

Malcolm Brogdon's absence from the list is a little surprising, though. He has been a pleasant surprise and he may end up being the steal of the 2016 draft. A lot of observers have noted that trading him will be a mistake since he's playing better than starting point guard Matthew Dellavedova.
Lowe also mentioned that the Minnesota Timberwolves were interested in Tony Snell. The guard played for Wolves president/coach Tom Thibodeau in Chicago.
A number of pundits believed the Bucks were interested in Ricky Rubio and they have speculated that he might be involved in a deal to bring Snell to the Bucks. ESPN's Brian Windhorst also talked about the Bucks' interest in bringing Rubio to the team.
"They have definite interest in him. The Bucks tried to trade for him last trade deadline. The Bucks would love to trade Matthew Dellavedova for him, but the problem is that doesn't help the Wolves. Everything the Bucks are doing is to get off money. Dellavedova can be had, John Henson can be had, even Mirza Teletovic can be had. I think they would love to get in a three-way deal where they could send out Dellavedova or Teletovic and get back Rubio," Windhorst said on "The Scoop" podcast.
Well, the two teams better come up with a deal fast because the trade window is closing in a few hours.
