The Charlotte Hornets are in negotiations with the Milwaukee Bucks to acquire center Miles Plumlee, two NBA sources confirmed Thursday.
Plumlee, who played college basketball at Duke, would reportedly come to the Hornets in exchange for Hornets big men Roy Hibbert and Spencer Hawes.
While this would reduce depth at center, it’s been clear the Hornets need to make a change in the midst of a six-game losing streak. They would get younger and more athletic with a center combination of Plumlee and Cody Zeller, who has missed a handful of games lately with a quad contusion.
