    Trade



    The Milwaukee Bucks traded Dan Gadzuric and Charlie Bell to the Golden State Warriors for Corey Maggette and the 44th pick in the draft.

    Maggette played in 70 games with 49 starts for Golden State last season, averaging 19.8 points per game. He will be expected to provide scoring for a team that may lose free agent John Salmons. Salmons is going to opt out of his contract with the Bucks, GM John Hammond told ESPN.com. The 30-year-old Maggette has three years, $30 million left on his contract.

    For the Warriors, the move is mainly about saving money. The Warriors save roughly $15 million in the deal. Gadzuric is in the last year of his contract, and Bell has two years and $7.9 million remaining on his contract.

    Bell played in 71 games for Milwaukee last season, averaging 6.5 points, 1.5 assists and 1.9 rebounds per game. Gadzuric appeared in 32 games for the Bucks last season and averaged 2.8 points and 2.9 rebounds in 9.8 minutes per game.

    Not even balls on the court for both Salmons and Maggette.
