    Bucks clear 20M from next season with a 1st and a 2nd rounder so, that's basically what we should trade to dump Knight while getting back a dead body, i guess.

    Hill's contract is not guaranteed for the next season so, yeah, they traded for him to clear some salary cause Middleton, Bledsoe and Brogdon are all expiring this season, and they're going to get paid soon, 20M on Henson and Delly were just a waste at this point.

    This trade is awful but it won't matter if they can't keep their star. So got to clear capspace to add some talent.

    It's a little bit weird that it happened now -too early.

    Ok then this move makes sense for the bucks. I remember reading that and wasnt sure. Good move for both teams.

    The bucks are pretty much saying they would rather have a quality signing or two in the off-season then a rookie. This kove makes perfect sense since they want to keep giannis happy since he will be eligible to sign an extension next season or at least incline he will do so.

    Lol the Cavs are TANKING hard.

    If Silver has some anti-tanking rule up his sleeve, he should have a special vote for it to count right before the draft.

    I think this is the reason it happened now.
    Maybe combine Hill + Brogdon or Snell for smth else.

    Hill is actually a good player, wow.

    Honestly, Bucks made out like bandits.

    Had wrist surgery; would be out for awhile...
    [Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - Nov 27, 2018]
    The timeline for Henson's return is not yet clear, though he could reasonably be out until the all-star break or beyond as he goes through the healing process. The Bucks did not provide an official update regarding the veteran center's return schedule.
