Whereas it appears unlikely that Milwaukee would half with any of its core items, the Bucks do have a number of belongings to dangle in commerce negotiations. Ought to the Bucks pull the set off and make a transfer for Quickley? Solely time will inform.
In abstract, Immanuel Quickley might be simply what the Milwaukee Bucks want to spice up their bench manufacturing and develop into a extra critical contender within the Jap Convention.
