James Harden has been the most talked about player this offseason. A week before the off season started, he reportedly demanded a trade. Fast forward to today: we haven’t seen any team approaching for a probable trade.

The Rockets meanwhile have brought in many players like DeMarcus Cousins and Christian Wood from the free agency. They also traded Westbrook for John Wall because Harden wanted to play with Wall instead of Westbrook.

It’s a very different-looking side than that of last season. The team is doing everything possible to convince their star to stay.

With the pre season starting in from the 11th of December, NBA teams have started training. Harden has already missed multiple training sessions. He’s given a clear indication that he desperately wants a trade.

According to NBA insider Shams Charania, Harden has even added two teams to his probable trade destinations. One of the teams is Milwaukee Bucks.

The Bucks have already given up much of their assets for bringing in Jrue Holiday. What might the possible trade packages for them? Take a look.

NBA Trade Rumors: Probable Trade Package by Milwaukee for James Harden

One thing is certain. In order to bring in a player like Harden, the Bucks will have to give up a star player. They won’t give up Giannis Antetokounmpo. That means Khris Middleton will be surely included in the package.

Former NBA champion Kendrick Perkins tweeted regarding the same.

The trade package can include the Bucks forward Khris Middleton. Middleton has been the second scoring option for the Bucks and has had an impressive stint in the team. He still has four years left in his contract and is set to earn $33 million.

With Middleton, the package will include guard Dente DiVincenzo. DiVincenzo is a young guard and is a good trade asset, but only Middleton and DiVincenzo won’t be enough for the Rockets to give up a player like Harden.

D.J Wilson can be added to this package. He is only 24 years old and is a decent rotational power forward. He will be key in matching the salary cap for Harden. They can add their 2020 draft pick, Sam Merril, who was the 2nd round pick. He is also a young guard and is a good shooter.

Apart from these four players, the Bucks can include one of the 2024 pick swaps they acquire from the New Orleans Pelicans and can also add the 2025 second-round pick they acquired from the Indiana Pacers.

With the Jrue Holiday trade, the Bucks have already given up too much. If they bring in Harden, the Bucks can be sure that Giannis signs the extension and they become instant contenders. Will they risk trading their second best player Middleton to bring Harden?
