Milwaukee deals Miles Plumlee to Charlotte in exchange for Roy Hibbert, Spencer Hawes

Milwaukee didn’t exactly make a famous mistake in signing Miles Plumlee to a four-year, $50 million deal during the 2016 offseason, but it did create a bit of a problem that they appear to have rid themselves of in no time at all. Plumlee, who barely played for the Bucks in 2016-17, is off to Charlotte in exchange for fellow center Roy Hibbert and Spencer Hawes, Adrian Wojnarowski reports at The Vertical.

Plumlee, who averaged just 2.6 points on 44 percent shooting in MKE a year after hitting over 60 percent of his shots in a contract season, was dealt after just 32 games with the Bucks in the weeks since signing the four-year deal as a restricted free agent last July.
