Maybe Budenzolzer would want his old shooting guard back he had in Atlanta in Hardaway (Bucks could use shooting) add Ntlinkina for expiring Bledsoe contract & Maker...
Brogdon seems to be the better point guard on the Bucks than Bledsoe.
Knicks would have a similar upside player in Maker that they had with Frank, while most importantly shedding Hardaway’s contract.

To be fair he would be getting Maker back as a prospect and Bledsoe would be an upgrade over Hardaway as a player play and contract. They could get a lot more for a Bledsoe and Maker package.
Knicks don't really need another big man prospect that needs mins though.

I'm not giving up Ntilikina unless we get a bonafide upgrade at a position of need or valuable draft pick. Thon Maker is not it.
But I would entertain flipping Hardaway Jr and Mitchell Robinson for Tony Snell and Thon Maker. I've never been especially high on Robinson, who I view more as an athlete than a basketball player in the vein of a Stromile Swift. In any case, the Bucks might be better suited to develop him and could value him highly as a result. The deal would not give us cap space immediately but Snell and Maker should be easier to move in subsequent trades than Hardaway.
