Milwaukee Bucks trade rumors: Bucks eyeing sharpshooter Thompson

At the moment, the Milwaukee Bucks are at 2-2 and in the bottom half of the Central Division in the NBA, and they might resort to roster changes in order to improve their standing.

Various rumors are circulating that the team may make big moves in their lineup, and it includes one of their young stars being traded for an All-Star from a Western Conference contender.

There are talks that the Bucks might be able to strike a deal with the Golden State Warriors for Klay Thompson. In return, the Bucks are likely to give up Khris Middleton and Jabari Parker in order to land the three-point specialist.

This comes in the wake of many noticing that Thompson seems like the odd man out in the Warriors line-up.

Since the arrival of Kevin Durant, Thompson has been regarded as the one most likely to leave as his shots and playing time will shrink significantly with Durant in tow.

This has been evident so far in the season as Thompson's averages have dropped. As of this writing, he averages 16.8 points on 41 percent shooting. Even worse is that he is only converting 11 percent of his three-point shots after averaging 42 percent throughout his career.

A change of scenery may reignite Thompson's career but it will come at a cost since the Bucks will give up Parker and Middleton.

Still without a game under his belt this year due to a torn hamstring, Middleton is a star waiting for his moment as shown by his averages. In his young career, Middleton averages 13.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.7 assists already. These numbers are expected to climb as soon as he makes it back.

On the other hand, Parker is steadily improving and may evolve as one of the best combo forwards in the league. This year, he averages 15.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game; all better than his career numbers.

It should be a big move if the two teams can pull this together, and it would definitely shake both teams to the core.
