After being traded from the Thunder to the Hornets, then to the Bulls, and then to the Bucks, Dieng has helped Milwaukee in a short stint.

The Milwaukee Bucks may have quietly become winners of the NBA trade deadline with the recent emergence of former lottery pick Ousmane Dieng.

Milwaukee remains without Giannis (calf strain) and Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique strain), both out indefinitely. Taurean Prince is still out, perhaps for the season, after neck surgery. They’re joined by Gary Harris, who will sit with a hamstring strain.

In his second game with the Milwaukee Bucks, Cam Thomas poured in 34 points in 25 bench minutes to will them over Orlando in a 116-108 victory Wednesday night.

The Bucks are on their first winning streak of the season after a 105-99 victory over the Pacers on Feb. 6 was their third in a row.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Kevin Porter Jr. has had an up-and-down start to his season. He believes finding balance will lead to greater success.

On All-Star break eve, can the Bucks do the unthinkable and beat the Thunder?
