Bucks Keep Adding, Complete Trade with the Kings

There's no doubt about it...the Milwaukee Bucks are going for it next season in an attempt to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo in Wisconsin. After the team sent a mega-package to the New Orleans Pelicans for guard Jrue Holiday, the team has also pulled off a trade with the Sacramento Kings.

The deal sees restricted free agent Bogdan Bogdanovic as the main piece in the deal, giving Giannis a pure-shooter for the wing. He's 28, and holds a career average of 13.5 points, 3.5 assists, and 3.2 rebounds per game along with a 37.4 shooting percentage from three. 

The one tough pill to swallow here for Bucks general manager Jon Horst would be losing Donte DiVicenzo. The young guard looks like he will be a player in this league. Last season he averaged 9.2 points per game and 4.8 rebounds in 66 games. 

Is Jrue Holiday and Bogdan Bogdanovic enough to keep Giannis in Milwaukee? No, it's going to come down to playoff success. 

Get your popcorn ready, Bucks fans.
