Mock Trade Reunites Bucks With Former Champion Point Guard in Package Headlined by Kyle Kuzma

Of course, the Bucks also added Myles Turner and Cole Anthonyt in free agency this offseason and also re-signed Bobby Portis, Gary Trent Jr. and Kevin Porter Jr.

Despite this, the Bucks allowed Brook Lopez to leave in free agency and they also waived Damian Lillard in order to sign Turner.

With these moves, Milwaukee will try to make a deep playoff run this season, though they may need to add more talent to their roster ahead of the trade deadline.

Bucks Could Target Jrue Holiday

One player the Bucks could target ahead of the deadline is a player who was apart of their title team in 2021, Jrue Holiday.

Milwaukee is in need of point guard depth after waiving Lillard and while Anthony and Porter Jr. are solid guards, adding Holiday to be their starter could work out well.

Mock Trade Sends Jrue Holiday to Bucks, Kyle Kuzma to Blazers

In a potential trade, the Bucks could send Kyle Kuzma and Ryan Rollins to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for Holiday and draft capital.

For the Bucks, moving Kuzma would be a tough decision after they traded away Khris Middleton for him last season, though he did struggle at the end of last year.

Because of this, Milwaukee may be open to moving Kuzma, especially to reunite with Holiday who played a key role during their championship run in 2021.

For Holiday, he would give the Bucks a much-needed starting point guard who is a great scorer, playmaker and defender and also already has chemistry with Giannis.

Last season, the 35-year-old guard averaged 11.1 points, 43 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game while shooting 44.3% from the field and 35.3% from three.

While Holiday’s has declined some over the past two seasons, mainly due to him not being a main option for the Boston Celtics, that could change with a return to Milwaukee where he would likely have a large role alongside Giannis and Turner.

Despite this, the Trail Blazers may not want to swap Holiday for Kuzma, which would likely result in Milwaukee looking elsewhere to add another point guard.
