NBA Trade Rumors: Golden State Warriors Klay Thompson To Milwaukee Bucks For Khris Middleton And Jabari Parker?

Golden State Warriors' spot-up-three-point-specialist, Klay Thompson is in the hot list of trade speculations as the shooting guard is said to be moving to Milwaukee Bucks for players Khris Middleton and Jabari Parker.

The said rumors started right after the Golden State Warriors bowed down to the Cleveland Cavaliers during the NBA Finals were they blew a 3-1 lead during the series. Apparently, there were heated conversations going on in the locker room where some Golden State Warriors suggested that they would like to see Thompson moved to another team. Inquistr reports that the said reason is because of Thompson's poor display of character and lack of sportsmanship.

Through the off-season, the trade speculations were brought up again after the 2015 NBA Champions, Golden State Warriors traded off some of their key players to bring in former NBA season MVP, Kevin Durant, forming a formidable "super team." Reports say that if the chemistry of the "super team" doesn't work, the first player to be shipped to another NBA city will be Klay Thompson.

The rumored trade scenario discussed online involves Klay Thompson and power forward Kevon Looney of the Golden State Warriors being swapped with shooting guard, Khris Middleton and power forward Jabari Parker from the Milwaukee Bucks. As far as ESPN NBA Trade Machine is concerned, the said player movement and possible trade are legal under NBA rules.

If both teams finalize on the said rumors and shake hands to seal the deal, both teams will benefit from the trade situation. Klay Thompson will bring veteran leadership and championship mindset to a young Milwaukee Bucks team while Khris Middleton will take his spot in the Golden State Warriors and Jabari Parker bringing length and athleticism to the team.

There have been no serious and final discussions in the league. However, the Golden State Warriors will unlikely close any trade deals until early 2017 where they can evaluate the success rate of the "super team" by adding Kevin Durant in the roster. After a disappointing loss during the opening night, it could be a potential turning point where we will witness another trade happening in the NBA season.
