Yahoo’s Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting a blockbuster three-team trade happening in the NBA that see’s JJ Reddick going to the Clippers while Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler will make their way to the Suns. Meanwhile Milwaukee who seems to be in full tank mode for next season’s Andrew Wiggins sweepstakes will get two second round picks next season.

We’ve known of the Clippers shopping Bledsoe for a few weeks now as it was a move that essentially had to be done with him being stuck behind Chris Paul in the rotation. So in retrospect the Clippers unloading him now before losing him during the summer was a good move on their part. The same can be said about their return in Reddick who’ll be sure to get plenty of open looks from downtown playing with CP3 and Blake Griffin.
Bleadsoe’s departure to Phoenix is a little more murky considering the $34 million dedicated to Goran Dragic and drafting Kendall Marshall with the 12th overall pick last year.
And a season after making the playoffs it’s going to be a long season in Milwaukee staring this Fall.
