Los Angeles Lakers’ potential trade target: Nobody from the Bucks
We said at the beginning of this article that we are only going to try and bring you realistic trade targets that the current teams might actually be willing to trade. When looking at the Milwaukee Bucks, there is no reason why the team would be willing to trade anything to the Lakers.

This does not mean that the Bucks will not be active, but the Lakers and Bucks are both atop the food chain and they A) do not want to help each other out and B) cannot really work out a deal where they are both getting equal value.
That is because they are searching for the same thing: an immediate value that can help next year’s title push. The same can be said for the Los Angeles Clippers and that is why when the Clippers article rolls around you will see the exact same answer.
The Bucks will have some roster holes to address, particularly at the center position and it will be interesting to see if they simply re-up Brook Lopez or if they try to find a different sharpshooting center. Aside from that, outside of minor tweaks, the Bucks are not really in the market for that much.
Playoff teams will do business with other playoff teams, especially if it is a playoff team like the Pacers who are good but are not quite there yet.
Two teams at the top of the food chain who are gunning for each other? There is not a single trade that would make any sort of sense.
