With shooting guard Khris Middleton needing surgery on a torn hamstring that will keep him out for approximately six months, the Milwaukee Bucks were searching for answers.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker still represent a bright future for this franchise, but the Bucks didn’t spend money on free agents like Greg Monroe, Matthew Dellavedova and Mirza Teletovic over the past few summers for another sub-.500 season.

As first reported by The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Bucks have found a temporary stop-gap on the wing by trading for Michael Beasley. The Houston Rockets will receive third string point guard Tyler Ennis in the deal.

Were the Bucks wise to trade for a player with a reputation like Beasley? Could the Rockets have gotten more than just a third string point guard? Here are NBA Trade Grades for both sides.
