Bucks Pursue Nets' Dorian Finney-Smith as Trade Deadline Approaches

Milwaukee aims to enhance defense and title chances with the addition of the versatile wing player.

The Milwaukee Bucks are showing a strong interest in Brooklyn Nets wing Dorian Finney-Smith ahead of the NBA trade deadline on February 8, 2024.
Finney-Smith is under contract through next season, with a player option for 2025-26, and is known for his defensive skills and three-point shooting ability.
The Nets are not under immediate pressure to trade Finney-Smith, despite interest from multiple teams including the Bucks.
Milwaukee lacks the first-round draft capital that Brooklyn is seeking, but is attempting to sweeten the deal with player Marjon Beauchamp and a second-round pick.
The Bucks are looking to bolster their defense, ranking 19th in the league, and compete for a title alongside stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.
