The Milwaukee Bucks have yet to pull off their first move of the trade season, but the Chicago Bulls just handed them a blueprint in a three-team deal on Saturday night.
In the trade, the Cavaliers sent forward De'Andre Hunter to the Kings in exchange for guards Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis. While the other two teams occupied the headlines, Chicago made the move possible by taking on Dario Saric from Sacramento. In return, the Bulls received a pair of second-round picks, Cleveland's 2027 pick (via Denver) and a 2029 selection from the Kings.
While Chicago's participation reads like a footnote, the Bucks should pay close attention.
