Both players are former lottery picks for the Pistons and Bucks who Woj describes as each probably needing a ‘change of scenery’.
Johnson has had an up and down career in the Motor City as the 22-year-old is averaging 7.5 points per game and shooting 38.1 from the field.
Meanwhile, the 21-year-old Maker who was taken 10th overall by the Bucks in 2010 is averaging 4.7 points this season for Milwaukee while shooting 44 percent from the field.
