With fewer than 48 hours left before the NBA’s March 15 trade deadline, the Golden State Warriors and Milwaukee Bucks reached an agreement on a five-player transaction that included Monta Ellis and Andrew Bogut.
In exchange, Golden State receives Bogut and swingman Stephen Jackson, while Milwaukee receives Ellis, Ekpe Udoh, and Kwame Brown.
There are a lot of reasons for one of the parties involved to not like this transaction, which is a deal that has many people scratching their heads because nearly no one expected this to be the first domino to fall.
When was Andrew Bogut drafted?
Bogut was chosen first overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2005 NBA Draft.
Who got traded for Andrew Bogut?
Golden State exchanged Monta Ellis for Andrew Bogut in March 2012. The Warriors, however, were ready to send Steph Curry to Milwaukee, according to Marc Lasry, the owner of the Milwaukee Bucks.
