Last season, at the fringes of what then seemed to be developing into an underwhelming trade deadline, the Milwaukee Bucks surprised the basketball world by trading their all-star caliber point-guard, Brandon Knight, for former Rookie of The Year recipient – Michael Carter-Williams, center Miles Plumlee, and rookie point guard Tyler Ennis.
For MCW, the trade was a blessing. Coach Jason Kidd finally got the lengthy point guard of his dreams, MCW started immediately, got all the playing time he wanted, and got his first taste of playoff basketball.
