Bucks Trade Roy Hibbert to Denver Nuggets for Protected Second Round Pick

We hardly knew ya Roy.

According to a report from The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Milwaukee Bucks are finalizing a deal sending center Roy Hibbert to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for a heavily protected 2nd round pick.

Denver will send a heavily protected second-round pick to the Bucks for Hibbert, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Trading Roy Hibbert was a potential scenario given he was on an expiring deal, and that heavily protected pick is likely of the top-55 protected variety meaning Hibbert is gone for essentially nothing.
