Milwaukee Bucks DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is on the injury report with a doubtful tag ahead of Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This suggests that Kuzma is unlikely to play. Over his first 10 appearances with Milwaukee, the veteran forward has averaged 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 34.2 minutes. The Bucks are still without Bobby Portis (suspension), which means someone else from the second unit needs to step up. AJ Green and Gary Trent Jr. may be more involved in the action. The latter has already gained some momentum, averaging 17.5 points over the last two games.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is listed as probable to play in Tuesday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Since returning from a calf strain, Antetokounmpo has made six consecutive appearances but remains on the injury report. However, Milwaukee is likely to upgrade his status to available once again before tip-off. Although Antetokounmpo has seen limited minutes since his return, he has still caused plenty of damage for the opposition. Over the past six games, the former MVP has averaged 24.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 1.2 steals in 28.6 minutes.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is listed as probable for Thursday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets. Since returning from a calf strain, Antetokounmpo has made four consecutive appearances and appears set to remain in the lineup. The Bucks have been monitoring Antetokounmpo's workload since his return, with him averaging 26.7 minutes per game. However, he has logged 32 minutes in each of the past two contests, signaling that Antetokounmpo may be ready to work at full capacity soon. Despite seeing fewer minutes than usual, Antetokounmpo has still filled up the stat sheet, notching 22.8 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 5.0 assists.

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Gary Trent Jr. (knee) has been listed as probable for Tuesday's matchup against the Houston Rockets. He is dealing with a right knee contusion, but it appears that Trent Jr. will be able to play through the injury. Trent Jr. is a valuable contributor off the bench for the Bucks and has even scored 20-plus points on a couple of occasions in recent games. If Trent Jr. is unable to play in Tuesday's game, Andre Jackson Jr. may take on a significant role in the rotation again. After a three-month stint as a starter, Jackson Jr. has played only a handful of minutes over the past two games.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) remains on the injury report with a probable tag ahead of Tuesday's encounter with the Houston Rockets. Antetokounmpo recently returned from a calf injury, but the team hasn't removed him from the injury report. After logging 43 total minutes across his first two games since returning, Antetokounmpo put in a 32-minute shift in Sunday's win over the Miami Heat. He posted a 27-point, 16-rebound double-double and had seven assists. Considering he was on the court for over 30 minutes against the Heat, Antetokounmpo appears to be close to being ready to handle his normal workload, which is fantastic news for fantasy managers.
