Some Milwaukee Bucks experience war shock after it was reported that Bogdan Bogdanović has been made available for trade by the Atlanta Hawks.
“It has been known for some time that Atlanta is willing to trade veteran center Clint Capela, but league sources say that the Hawks have begun actively exploring the trade market for their own perimeter specialist: Bogdan Bogdanović,” NBA insider Marc Stein said in his podcast.
Teams who reportedly expressed interest on the Serbian shooting guard are the Phoenix Suns and the Miami Heat who according to reports are also talking to the Bucks.
The 32-year-old hasn’t been playing up to par this season, having missed the last two games due to personal reason. He was also benched in the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
He currently averages 10 points per game on 30.1 percent shooting from the three point line. He scored in double digits just three times in his last 10 games.

It was in 2021 when Jon Horst talked to the Sacramento Kings, Bogan’s old team, and seal a trade.
There was agreement between the two parties but the trade was shelved before any signatures were made.
The NBA found out that the Bucks talked to the player and his agent before they were allowed to, forcing the league to stop the planned swap.
Bogdanovic’s camp pleads ignorance, leading to the Bucks getting punished more.
“There were Bucks officials fuming privately at the notion that they’d been double-crossed during the confusing affair, with Bogdanovic’s camp insisting all along that he had never agreed to join the Bucks,” the Athletic’s Sam Amick wrote in 2021.
As a result, the Bucks lost their 2022 second round draft pick.
