Milwaukee Bucks DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) has been listed as probable for Thursday's tilt against the Los Angeles Lakers. Antetokounmpo is expected to make a 16th consecutive appearance despite dealing with right patella tendinopathy. Milwaukee's leading man has been a bit quiet in the scoring department for a couple of games, yet Antetokounmpo continues to fill up the stat sheet. Last time out against the Golden State Warriors, he had 20 points with nine rebounds, seven assists, two blocks, and three steals.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (groin) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. As expected, Lillard will shake off the probable tag and play through his groin soreness. Lillard has played in 12 straight games, so it's going to take more than a minor injury to hold him out of action. The 34-year-old has been one of the best guards in terms of fantasy value this season. He's averaging 25.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 7.1 assists across 36 minutes this season. Fantasy managers can make sure to get him active in their lineups.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. As expected, Antetokounmpo is active after being listed as probable on the injury report. He has been a regular on the injury report this season due to a lingering knee issue. Despite that, Antetokounmpo has played in 14 straight games coming into Tuesday's contest. He has been one of the best fantasy options all season long and can be inserted into fantasy lineups on Tuesday.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Gary Trent Jr. (knee) is available ahead of Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. As expected, Trent is available to play after being listed as probable on the injury report due to a knee injury. The 26-year-old has picked up the slack recently with 12 points or more in each of his last three games. There's not a ton of fantasy value here, but Trent could offer some low-end or deep league appeal, assuming he continues to play around 20 minutes per game.

Milwaukee Bucks center Jericho Sims (thumb) will be out for the remainder of the regular season. The team announced that Sims underwent surgery to repair a torn ligament in his right thumb and is expected to miss approximately four weeks. The Bucks will wrap up their regular-season schedule on April 13, making it unlikely Sims will return to action before the postseason. In its press release, the team noted that Sims would "likely return for the playoffs." Since moving to Milwaukee in a trade deadline deal with the New York Knicks, Sims has done a decent job as a backup big for the Bucks, averaging 2.4 points and 4.9 rebounds in 15.0 minutes per game. However, fantasy managers likely won't miss him much.
