Sources: Bucks, Bulls near MCW-for-Snell trade

The Milwaukee Bucks and Chicago Bulls are in advanced discussions on a trade to swap guard Michael Carter-Williams for swingman Tony Snell, according to league sources.

Sources told ESPN.com that the Bucks, who have been openly looking for more shooting and defense on the perimeter in the wake of a long-term injury suffered by starter Khris Middleton just days before the start of training camp, have targeted Snell to give them some much-needed help on the wing.

If the deal is consummated, it would be the second trade Milwaukee has swung since losing Middleton, following the Bucks' recent acquisition of Michael Beasley from the Houston Rockets.
