Milwaukee Bucks Receive: G/F Luke Kennard, 2025 Second-Round Pick
LA Clippers Receive: C Brook Lopez
The Milwaukee Bucks and LA Clippers are two teams that should be contenders during the 2022-23 season. The Bucks are looking like contenders during this season, but the Clippers have an eye toward next season already.
The center spot is one Los Angeles could address this offseason to add something else to their rotation. Brook Lopez would provide the team with a different dimension in the frontcourt as they don’t have any big men that can impact the game on the perimeter.
Given some of the injury concerns that Lopez has, and that he will be on an expiring deal, the LA Clippers second a future second-round pick to the Bucks to sweeten the deal a little bit.
Along with the pick, the Bucks are getting sharp-shooter Luke Kennard.

Kennard is one of the best high-volume 3-point shooters in the league and is a perfect fit in the lineup alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo. It would be a seamless transition for him to head to Milwaukee.
How will this deal impact each team? Let’s take a look at it from both of their perspectives, starting with the Milwaukee Bucks.
