With the NBA trade deadline approaching soon this month teams have made progress on all their available options to trade and acquire some of the best superstars. It turns out that some of the first moves have been made by Milwaukee Bucks to trade Miles Plumlee to the Charlotee Hornets.
According to Real GM, the Bucks have agreed to trade Miles to the Hornets for Roy Hibbert and Spencer Hawes, Miles re-signed with the Bucks on a four year $52 million deal in the 2016 off season. The Hornets have been waiting to upgrade their defense and rebounding in the frontcourt and Miles might be the right person for them at the moment.
The Bucks will have to release Steve Novak to free up the roster spot for Hawes and Hibbert, as for Hawes he has a player option for the 2017-18 season. He also signed a $23 million deal with the Los Angeles Clippers in 2014 for four years. On the other hand Hibbert is on a one year deal for $5 million.
Miles will make around $12.5 million for the current season and he has two years, which is $25 million plus left on his four year contract. The Hornets will be looking to sign center Mike Toby from its Greensboro NBA Development League franchise to a 10 day contract as per Yahoo.
The Buck will clear the salary cap in the deal and this will help to re-sign the restricted free agent forward Tony Snell for a contract extension. It is reported that Tony Snell's value has increased due to a solid season with the Bucks.
It is confirmed that Milwaukee Bucks have traded Miles Plumlee to the Charlotte Hornets, considering Miles potential he will be able to put up a good game with the Hornets for the upcoming season.
