Overview
- The Athletic’s Sam Amick reports Michael Porter Jr. is a name worth watching for Milwaukee as the team explores trade options.
- Porter is producing career-best numbers in Brooklyn with 25.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game on 49.6% shooting and 41.0% from three.
- ESPN analyst Tim Legler says Porter’s performance has completely changed his trade value, potentially raising the acquisition cost.
- The Bucks do not control a first-round pick until 2031, limiting the assets they can offer for a high-salary scorer.
- Giannis Antetokounmpo has urged roster upgrades, while Milwaukee sits 11th in the East at 14-19 with poor offensive and rebounding metrics reported.
