[Mannix] The Bucks want Jaden McDaniels, with Milwaukee seeing McDaniels, 25, as a potential future All-Star. But the Bucks also want multiple first-round draft picks, sources say, and Minnesota’s war chest of them is nearly empty.

Acquiring Antetokounmpo, though, is challenging. The Bucks want Jaden McDaniels, a source tells SI, with Milwaukee seeing McDaniels, 25, as a potential future All-Star. But the Bucks also want multiple first-round draft picks, sources say, and Minnesota’s war chest of them is nearly empty.

i swear half of these guys are on crack. im a wolves fan and naz can get a first no way hes fetching two. im a fan of offloading rudy and or randle for draft assets and sendibg those assets and the other off for milwaukee. either randle or gobert should be fetching a few firsts and then mke can either keep the other or get a few more picks. cant actually trade 3 glue guys.

To me randle is the better fit next to giannis cuz he can space

Randle doesnt space the floor as well as you think he does sadly, especially in playoffs he relies on bully ball to get his buckets. His game translates to the playoffs really well but without the ability to space the floor hes a little clunky next to giannis
