Bucks pursue Jalen Duren in potential three-team trade deal

Summary

The Milwaukee Bucks are exploring a three-team trade that could land them 22-year-old All-NBA center Jalen Duren from the Detroit Pistons. As Duren's contract negotiations loom, Milwaukee aims to secure him before a bidding war arises next summer. The proposed trade involves sending Tyler Herro and Kel’el Ware to Detroit, while the Bucks would receive Duren and a 2031 first-round pick. Duren, who averaged 19.5 points and 10.5 rebounds last season, could become the centerpiece of Milwaukee’s roster post-Giannis Antetokounmpo.
