Monday night, the Bucks pulled off a pair of big deals with New Orleans and Sacramento, hoping their all-in approach will convince star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo to sign a Supermax deal with the team as early as Sunday.

The Bucks and Pelicans came up with a trade agreement with the Bucks getting all-star guard Jrue Holiday for Eric Bledsoe and George Hill as well as three first-round draft picks.  The deal also allows the Bucks to swap picks with the Bucks in two other drafts.  The deal is expected to leave the Bucks without their first round pick (24th overall) in Wednesday nights draft.
