7 Players the Milwaukee Bucks should hope get bought out after NBA Trade Deadline

Lamar Stevens, Memphis Grizzlies

Rather than continue to stockpile veterans, plenty of Bucks fans want to see the Bucks get younger. One potential addition that would allow them to do so is Lamar Stevens, the 26-year-old forward who was traded from the Boston Celtics to the Memphis Grizzlies at the deadline. It's unclear exactly what Memphis plans to do with the newcomer, but Milwaukee should keep tabs on the situation.

Stevens' calling card has always been defense. Another 6-foot-6 wing, he's played both forward slots in his NBA career and is capable of taking on top-tier talent. The biggest knock on Stevens has been his offensive output - averaging five points while shooting 28.5 percent from three for his career - but in Milwaukee, he'd simply be tasked with playing his heart out defensively every possession.

An underrated attribute of his may be his weight. At 230 lbs, Stevens could take on bigger forwards. Looking at Milwaukee's current roster, outside of Jae Crowder, none of the other wings in the rotation are overly bulky. Big wings could give Malik Beasley (187 lbs) and Pat Connaughton (209 lbs) trouble, so perhaps a heftier piece like Stevens could be of use on defense in those particular situations.

It will be interesting to see what the Grizzlies do with Stevens. With so many key pieces out of the mix for their banged up roster right now, they could very well opt to keep him and evaluate his talent, but perhaps they'd entertain letting him go if they have other players in mind for the roster. Either way, he is an underrated name to watch.
