The 39-6 Milwaukee Bucks have the best record in the NBA, but they would reportedly be willing to deal guard Eric Bledsoe if offered an enticing return package.
"They would do that, definitely," an Eastern Conference executive told NBA insider Gery Woelfel.
Another league player personnel director said, "Sure. Publicly, they (the Bucks) say all the right things about him, but I know that's not the case."
This is not the first time the Bucks have considered trading Bledsoe.
According to Woelfel, they nearly dealt him to the Dallas Mavericks for Dennis Smith Jr. last season. Instead, they signed the University of Kentucky product to a four-year, $70 million contract extension, but Woelfel noted some around the league felt that was to make him a more trade-friendly asset so potential suitors would have multiple years of team control available.
