Australian NBA centre Andrew Bogut has reportedly been traded by the Milwaukee Bucks to the Golden State Warriors.

The Bucks have agreed to release Bogut and forward Steve Jackson and receive guard Monta Ellis, forward Ekpe Udoh and centre Kwame Brown in return, according to a person close to the deal.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported the deal on its website on Tuesday night.

The trade represents a parting of the ways between the Bucks and Bogut, the No.1 overall pick in the 2005 NBA draft who has struggled with injuries.

It also allows the Bucks to rid themselves of Jackson, who had fallen out of favour with coach Scott Skiles.
