In late September, the news broke that the Milwaukee Bucks and Houston Rockets had exchanged Tyler Ennis for Michael Beasley. The initial impression of that trade from many was negative.
This was because the Bucks had given away an encouraging young prospect for a 27-year-old who had been playing in China less than a year ago. However, after starting to take the court for the Bucks, the opinion on this trade seems to be changing.
Michael Beasley is on a minimum contract, so the risk for this trade was low to begin with. With the Bucks desperately needing bench help behind Giannis, a gamble on a former number two pick would most likely be worth the risk.
