In a matter of hours, Milwaukee Bucks acquire veteran point guard Jrue Holiday along with three-point specialist Bogdan Bogdanović in separate trades with the New Orleans Pelicans and Sacramento Kings The cost includes Eric Bledsoe, Donte DiVincenzo, George Hill, Ersan Ilyasova and multiple future first round draft choices extending into 2027. The news apparently satisfies Giannis Antetokounmpo, reports dictate he is leaning towards signing the long awaited five-year/$247 million 'supermax' contract to stay with the Bucks. Although the Pelicans will miss Holiday, who has spent his last seven years in New Orleans, the organization continues to stockpile future first-round picks to eventually surround Zion Williamson.
That would constitute the bold moves made by the front office as a smashing success.
