The Milwaukee Bucks are expected to reveal a new color scheme for their jerseys on Wednesday.

The current color scheme of forest green, red, silver and white has been in effect since the 2006-'07 season, when it replaced a purple and green theme.

The purple theme was introduced by Mike Dunleavy Sr. in 2001.

Chris Johnson has agreed to sign with the Utah Jazz for the remainder of the season, league sources tell RealGM.

Johnson became a free agent after his second 10-day contract with the Milwaukee Bucks expired.

J.R. Smith has had the biggest Box Plus-Minus improvement of all the players traded this season as he's become a critical part of the Cleveland Cavaliers success following his arrival from the New York Knicks. 

Smith had a -4.3 BPM with the Knicks and +3.4 with the Cavaliers for a difference of +7.7.

Enes Kanter ranks second with a +5.9 difference since arriving to the Oklahoma City Thunder from the Utah Jazz. The Jazz have also benefitted from his absence as it has given more minutes to Rudy Gobert.

Will Barton, Mo Williams, Anthony Tolliver, Ramon Sessions, Timofey Mozgov, Iman Shumpert, Tarik Black and Goran Dragic round out the top-10.

Overall, the Heat have the best Trade Score at 6.10, ahead of the Charlotte Hornets at 5.90 and Cavaliers at 5.10. The

Brandon Knight has had the biggest drop since being traded, going from +2.3 with the Milwaukee Bucks to -4.0 with the Phoenix Suns. The Bucks replaced Knight's +2.3 with a -2.0 from Michael Carter-Williams and they have struggled since the trade.

The Dallas Mavericks are also one of the losers of in-season trades as Rajon Rondo has struggled and they also lost the production of Brandan Wright.

The Bucks have the worst Trade Score at -4.30 with the Mavericks ranking next to last at -3.70.

The Milwaukee Bucks have re-signed Chris Johnson on a second 10-day contract.

Johnson has appeared in five games this season for the Bucks, averaging 4.6 points and 2.0 rebounds in 20.0 minutes.

Johnson has also had stints this season with the Utah Jazz and Philadelphia 76ers.

The Milwaukee Bucks will use their stretch provision upon Larry Sanders.

The Bucks will pay Sanders in annual increments of $1.9 million over a seven-year period, which will also be applied to the Bucks' salary cap each season through the 21-22 season.

Sanders will collect about $22 million, or half of his original $44 million.

The Milwaukee Bucks plan to sign Chris Johnson to a 10-day contract.

Johnson has most recently been with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the D-League.

Khris Middleton has emerged as a long-term solution for the Milwaukee Bucks at shooting guard. Middleton is a two-way player favored by analytics.

Middleton is sixth among all NBA players in Real Plus-Minus, which attempts to measure a player's impact on team performance. Stephen Curry, James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Anthony Davis and LeBron James are the only players ahead of Middleton.

The Bucks would like to re-sign Middleton this summer in restricted free agency.

"Right now I think the main improvement in my defense has just been the coaches," Middleton said, crediting coach Jason Kidd and his staff. "They've been teaching me defensive schemes, how to guard guys, how to use my length.

"I give all the credit to them and then my teammates having my back. I was watching film during the summer. We do our principles to make sure I stay straight and everybody else stays straight on it."

Middleton believes his length at shooting guard gives him an advantage.

"I'm a lot taller and longer than guys, so it's just using my length and making it tougher on them," Middleton said. "I don't have to be into them all the time and fouling them."

"He's accepted the challenge to get better," Kidd said. "He's gotten better in all phases of his game, not just being known as a shooter but defensively. And he's starting to be more vocal.

"You would probably say he's one of the quiet guys. But now he's taking a little bit more of that leadership role."

Middleton was acquired by the Bucks in the same deal that brought point guard Brandon Knight from Detroit in the summer of 2013, in exchange for Brandon Jennings.
