While the Milwaukee Bucks would love to upgrade their roster via a trade heading into deadline season, there's a major problem with any deal coming to fruition.

The Milwaukee Bucks are targeting a major trade to strengthen their 2025 roster, with Zach LaVine as their top candidate. A complex five-team trade could result in LaVine joining the Bucks, while other players like Beal,

All reports indicate that the Bucks are willing to shake up their roster to prepare for a deep playoff run. Khris Middleton is fully on the table, as are Bobby Portis Jr. and Pat Connaughton.

Besides rookie Matas Buzelis – not that he’s completely untouchable – Karnisovas would be willing to part with anyone on the roster if they felt it would make the Bulls a better product long term

In this new trade proposal, the Bucks do land an All-Star, grabbing Zach LaVine from the rival Chicago Bulls. The deal would be a three-team trade between the Bucks, Bulls, and Detroit Pistons. Using the Spotrac trade machine and abiding by CBA rules, here is what the deal could look like:

The Milwaukee Bucks head to Intuit Dome to face the LA Clippers in a non-conference matchup. The Bucks are 25-17, which puts them in fourth place in the Eastern Conference. The Clippers are 24-19, which puts them in sixth place in the Western Conference.

After starting off the season with a dismal 2-8 run through their first 10 contests, the 24-17 Milwaukee Bucks don't necessarily look like world-beaters this se

The Bucks could turn to one of these six teams as a trade partner for Pat Connaughton so that they can then acquire Bradley Beal.

The Milwaukee Bucks are considering a trade involving Khris Middleton to acquire Zach LaVine from the Chicago Bulls. This move aims to bolster the team's scoring and address salary cap issues.

But the team has been "fun-bad," thanks to solid play from two-time All-Star small forward/shooting guard LaVine, two-time All-Star center Nikola Vucevic, and guards Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu and Giddey. In the mediocre East, the Bulls are good enough to have at least a shot at the postseason.

The Detroit Pistons may not be big players at the NBA trade deadline, but their cap space could net some assets in helping out blockbuster deals.
