Knicks trade Jericho Sims to Bucks for Delon Wright, cash

The New York Knicks have traded center Jericho Sims to the Milwaukee Bucks as part of a larger deal that involves Kyle Kuzma and Khris Middleton. In exchange for Sims, the Knicks will receive Delon Wright, cash considerations, and the draft rights to Hugo Besson. This trade comes just before the NBA trade deadline and follows a series of moves made by teams across the league. Sims, who was drafted 58th overall in 2021, struggled to secure significant playing time with the Knicks, which led to speculation about his potential departure. The Bucks may benefit from Sims as a backup center, especially with Brook Lopez's heavy minutes, while the Knicks continue to seek improvements in their frontcourt. This transaction underscores the ongoing activity and strategic shifts in the NBA as teams prepare for the playoffs.
