The Milwaukee Bucks already appear to be active on the trade market.

During Monday's episode of The Hoop Collective, ESPN's Brian Windhorst revealed he was on the phone with a team that received a trade call from Milwaukee during the conversation.

"I was on the phone with this team and I go, 'Hey, have the Bucks called you yet?' And they're like, 'No, they haven't called us.' I go, 'Well, I just talked to like four teams in the last day, the Bucks called.' He's like, 'Yeah, well they haven't called us.' And then he's like 'Wait a minute, Bucks on the other line,'" Windhorst recounted (51:00 mark).

While Milwaukee is reportedly contacting several teams in regards to a trade, that doesn't necessarily mean Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard will be moved.

NBA insider Marc Stein reported on Sunday that the Bucks are still trying to improve the depth around their star pairing.

Milwaukee owns a record of just 2-8 to open its first full season under head coach Doc Rivers following a loss to the Boston Celtics on Sunday, sitting at No. 14 in the Eastern Conference standings.

It's a disappointing start for the Bucks, especially since their star duo has mostly lived up to expectations.

Antetokounmpo is averaging a league-leading 31.6 points per game, pulling down 12.8 rebounds each night and shooting 60.7 percent from the field. Lillard is recording 26.0 points and 6.6 assists per game on 44.4/34.8/90.9 shooting splits.

With the Feb. 6 trade deadline still a few months away, the Bucks could make several moves before it passes as they continue to search for depth upgrades.
