The Milwaukee Bucks have traded for star guard Jrue Holiday. The New Orleans Pelicans will reportedly send Holiday to the Bucks for Eric Bledsoe, George Hill and draft picks.
Bucks are finalizing a package that includes three future first-round picks to the Pelicans in deal, sources tell ESPN. https://t.co/7TYoogZHCD

The Bucks saw a slight boost in their title odds moving from +550 to +450 and now have the second-shortest odds behind the Los Angeles Lakers.
Chris Paul Traded to the Suns
Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Chris Paul is headed to the Phoenix Suns, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
The deal sends Chris Paul and Abdel Nader to the Suns for Kelly Oubre, Ricky Rubio, Ty Jerome, Jalen Lecque and a 2022 first-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

So far the news hasn't moved the odds at PointsBet, where the Suns are listed at 66-1 to win the NBA title next season. The Suns fell just short of a potential play-in game spot during the NBA's restart in Orlando despite being the only team to win all eight of its seeding games. The combo of Paul and Devin Booker would give the Suns two perennial All-Stars for the first time since 2009-10 when they had Amar'e Stoudemire and Steve Nash.
The Thunder have also reportedly reached a deal that will send Sixth Man of the Year runner-up Dennis Schröder to the Lakers in exchange for Danny Green and the No. 28 pick in this year's draft.
