Rumors have been swirling around this Milwaukee Bucks team for a couple of years now, but with the expectations this team has, those rumors have only been amplified further.
Despite Bucks GM Jon Horst coming out and thoroughly denying any trade rumors, specifically ones involving Eric Bledsoe, the rumors will continue to swirl.
It makes sense for such rumors to occur, because the Bucks have two polarizing players in Bledsoe and Khris Middleton as key supporting pieces. Bledsoe has now had two consecutive postseasons where he’s failed to show up in the biggest moments, and for Middleton, many believe he isn’t good enough to be the second option on a championship team.
