Middleton-Kuzma trade leftovers: Bucks acquire additional second-round pick

In the wake of the NBA’s trade deadline last week, many moves were wrapped up into other transactions as the involved teams wheeled and dealt (dealed?) with other rivals. Two-team trades became three-teamers, three-teamers became four-teamers, and so on. The Bucks’ swap of Khris Middleton to the Wizards for Kyle Kuzma was the headline grabber, but it ended up also including two other teams (the Knicks and Spurs), a few other players, some cash, and some draft picks. That last bit is of particular importance to Milwaukee, who went from having just two tradeable future picks unencumbered by swaps to having four (after the 2025 NBA draft, they’ll have five).
