Milwaukee, WI (Basketball News) - The Milwaukee Bucks reportedly traded forward Keith Van Horn to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for forwards Calvin Booth, Alan Henderson and cash considerations.

According to the Dallas Morning News, the deal was completed just prior to Thursday’s 3 p.m. (et) trade deadline.
