Nets trade Tyler Zeller to the Bucks for Rashad Vaughn and a draft pick

The Brooklyn Nets have traded center Tyler Zeller to the Milwaukee Bucks for guard Rashad Vaughn and a second-round pick, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

What It Means:

Zeller had fallen out of the rotation in Brooklyn with the emergence of Jarrett Allen as the starting center. He will slide into a reserve role behind John Henson as the big man for the Bucks. Vaughn was seeing minimal time in Milwaukee and was included likely just to make the money work. The second round pick is for 2018 and will become the Nets' if it falls between picks 31 and 47. It will become an unprotected 2020 second-round pick if not conveyed this year.

Zeller has averaged 7.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 14.9 FanDuel points per game this season.
