The Milwaukee Bucks have decided not to trade for Caron Butler.

Butler has been promised a new team by the Sacramento Kings.

Butler was previously with the Bucks and is a native of Wisconsin.

Joe Prunty is acting as interim head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks with Jason Kidd out six weeks with hup surgery.

"We're going to try and keep it the same," said Prunty. "Everything will be similar to what we've done in the past. We're not trying to change anything. For us, it's about consistency more than anything else."

Prunty was also an assistant on Kidd's staff with the Brooklyn Nets.

Draymond Green and Milwaukee guard O.J. Mayo had a heated exchange after the Golden State Warriors' 121-112 win Friday night, leading team security to get between Green and Bucks players.

Green held up his hand as Mayo made contact with Green's chest after the buzzer.

Green and Mayo then traded words and Mayo touched the back of Green's head.

"I'm not really into talking about what guys say. What you think he said he may not have said or he may have said," Green said in the locker room. "Just, ain't no man going to touch my head. I'm a grown man. That's all I've got for you."

Asked whether that was what the altercation was mostly about, Green said, "Once again, I'm not going to go into what he said, what you think he may have said, he may have said or may not have said, but no man is going to touch my head. Point blank."

According to Bucks players, Green's comments to the media earlier this week sparked the altercation

Carlos Boozer met with the front office of the Milwaukee Bucks to discuss a possible signing.

Boozer had a positive meeting with Bucks coach Jason Kidd and general manager John Hammond in Los Angeles.

Greg Monroe remains out for the Bucks with a sprained MCL and are short on frontcourt players.

Boozer averaged 11.8 points and 6.8 rebounds while shooting 49.9 percent from the field in 71 games for the Lakers last season.

The Golden State Warriors are looking forward to playing the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday, less than a week after they were given their first loss of the season.

"Big opportunity to redeem ourselves," Stephen Curry said. "We remember what happened less than a week ago."

The Bucks celebrated the win, including a dunk and staredown at the Warriors' bench from Michael Carter-Williams. 

"Oh, it was a nice celebration. We do remember that stuff," Curry said. "We were kind of laughing at some of the stuff going on. It was a big game for them. Friday will be a big game for us."

"Michael Carter-Williams getting a dunk at the end of the game and looking at our bench like, 'Dude you lost your spot,'" Green said of Carter-Williams losing his job as a starter. "So, it's not quite common that you should be looking toward someone's bench yelling. You've got some ground to make up."

The Sacramento Kings have agreed to find a trade of Caron Butler in order for him to receive more playing time.

The Milwaukee Bucks are the most likely destination for Butler, who could use his veteran leadership.

A deal could be agreed upon before the end of December.

Greivis Vasquez underwent successful surgery to remove a bone spur and loose bodies from his right ankle.

The surgery was performed by Dr. Martin O’Malley at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.

An update on Vasquez’s recovery period will be provided after post-surgical consultation with Dr. O’Malley.

In 16 games this season, Vasquez averaged 7.1 points, 4.4 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 22.6 minutes per contest.

A group of Milwaukee Bucks' fans wore custom made 24-1 t-shirts to the team's 108-95 win over the Golden State Warriors.

The Bucks also ended the Los Angeles Lakers' 33-game winning streak during the 71-72 season.

 

Great atmosphere tonight for the Bucks vs Warriors game!
