The Detroit Pistons are sending veteran guard Caris LeVert and two second-round picks to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Taurean Prince and Gary Harris, according to ESPN.
Trade Details
The trade is part of a larger six-team deal that includes veteran guard Khris Middleton returning to the Washington Wizards on a three-year, $17.6 million sign-and-trade agreement with the Dallas Mavericks.
LeVert, 31, is halfway through a two-year, $29 million contract he signed last offseason with Detroit. He averaged career lows of 7.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 19.2 minutes per game, well below his career averages of 13.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 26.9 minutes per game over 10 NBA seasons.
Prince, 32, averaged 9.2 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists while shooting 43.6% from 3-point range last season for Milwaukee. Harris, 31, averaged 2.7 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game in his lone season with Milwaukee.
Middleton, 34, returns to Washington after he was moved to Dallas at the trade deadline. He spent parts of two seasons with Washington, averaging 10.4 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.3 assists while shooting 31.5% from 3-point range.
