Bucks propose trade with Jazz to boost bench depth and scoring options

The Milwaukee Bucks are considering a trade with the Utah Jazz that would send Bobby Portis and Pat Connaughton, along with future draft picks, to Utah. In return, the Bucks would receive Jordan Clarkson, Drew Eubanks, and Patty Mills. This trade aims to strengthen the Bucks' bench by adding Clarkson, who averages 16.0 points per game. The Bucks are looking for a consistent third scoring option to support Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. Currently, the Bucks rank fourth in the Eastern Conference, while the Jazz are in a rebuilding phase with a 9-27 record. The proposed trade would help both teams by providing the Jazz with draft capital and the Bucks with additional scoring depth.
