Reports: Bucks trading Khris Middleton to Wizards for Kyle Kuzma

The Milwaukee Bucks have a new big three.

According to multiple reports, the Bucks have agreed to trade guard Khris Middleton to the Washington Wizards for a package that includes forward Kyle Kuzma.

The Bucks will also receive guard AJ Johnson and a draft pick with the Wizards receiving forward Patrick Baldwin Jr. and a second-round draft compensation.

Middleton has spent the past 12 seasons with the Bucks and won the NBA title with the team in 2021.

The three-time all-star is averaging 12.6 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.4 assists in 23 games, seven starts, this season.

The Bucks (26-22) are fifth in the Eastern Conference and are in need of a jolt having lost four straight games.

Kuzma is averaging 15.2 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists this season.

The 29-year-old captured the NBA championship with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020 and was traded to the Wizards the following year as part of the deal for star guard Russell Westbrook.
