Either the bucks gave up on Bogut too quickly or they think Monta and Udoh will contribute more to their team than a healthy bogut and that their frontline is currently solid with Gooden, Ilyasova, M bha moute plus kwame and Udoh.

Good big men are scarce in today's league, a healthy bogut is arguably one of the best centers in the league. There is no way they'll trade bogut like this if he wasnt injured and had a history of being injured multiple times.

On the other hand, Monta is a consistent perimeter scorer, can also penetrate, finish and could draw defenders which could open up shooters outside. Plus they get an additional 2 able bodies down low in Udoh and Kwame. Only time will tell which team made a better decision, which one is dependent on bogut's health.
