If all of Wisconsin holds its breath before the “trade deadline”, when we know that Giannis Antetokounmpo is closer than ever to leaving, the Bucks nor do they intend to remain inactive on the market, studying all possible avenues on the side.
Thus, Hoopshype reports that the leaders of Milwaukee intend to strengthen themselves at the margins, by trying either to recover players with interesting potential or to recover Draft choices. By letting go, ideally, of small contracts to help other teams reduce their salary margin.
This is the reason why the name of Cam Thomas returns to the rumors. A proven scorer (21.6 points on average for three years), stuck in a replacement role with the Nets, he will be at the end of his contract at the end of the season and therefore represents a perfect bargaining chip. Brooklyn would therefore be wrong not to transfer him by Thursday, just to obtain compensation.
Fragile in his hamstrings, the 24-year-old fullback hoped to have a big season to finally break the bank in the summer of 2026, but he is currently struggling to do so with the New York franchise. A boon for Milwaukee?
The Bucks would in any case not only target Cam Thomas, since Hoopshype adds that D’Angelo Russell also appears on their shelves. Currently in Dallas to replace Kyrie Irving, he will also be able to test the market at the end of the season – if he declines his option – and his arrival would already compensate for the loss of Kevin Porter Jr. at the lead.
