The Milwaukee Bucks is one team that could trade for Jimmy Butler, and some are wondering if they'll make the move.

Phoenix Suns plot thickens, multiple reports suggest that the Milwaukee Bucks could be the third team to step in and facilitate a possible blockbuster trade.

Though the strength of schedule over this span hasn’t necessarily been impressive, Phoenix has been better recently, winning nine of its last 13 games. So, as the team continues its pursuit of Jimmy Butler, the Suns (24-22) are moving their way up the standings.

Norman Powell helps spur a late Clippers run, but Devin Booker and Kevin Durant help the Phoenix Suns hold on for a 111-109 victory.

Where will Jimmy Butler end up before the 2025 NBA trade deadline? Only four teams realistically make the most sense to acquire the disgruntled veteran wing.

After a slow start to the season, the Milwaukee Bucks are 26-19 and own the No. 4 seed in the East just a week until the trade deadline. Though their roster looks poised for a playoff run as is, the Bucks are a team to monitor in the trade market.
