In a significant trade, the New York Knicks have dealt Jericho Sims to the Milwaukee Bucks as part of a three-team deal that also involves Kyle Kuzma and Khris Middleton. The Knicks acquire veteran guard Delon Wright, draft rights to Hugo Besson, and cash considerations.

Sims, who struggled to find a role in New York, averaged just 2.4 points and 3.9 rebounds over 177 games. As the Knicks faced a pressing need for quality minutes, especially with Mitchell Robinson out, Sims found himself benched in favor of rookie Ariel Hukporti. The Bucks hopes to capitalize on Sims' athleticism next to Giannis Antetokounmpo.
