Milwaukee Bucks DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) is probable for Monday's Central Division clash with the Detroit Pistons. It's not uncommon to see the multi-time MVP on the injury report, so he should be good to go, barring a setback with his shoulder contusion. Antetokounmpo amassed 31 points, 10 boards, nine assists, two steals, and one block against Detroit on Saturday, the first of consecutive meetings between the clubs. However, fantasy managers already know how dominant he can be.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) looks set to return to the court on Saturday against Detroit, with the team listing him as probable for the game. The former MVP sat out Wednesday's clash with Cleveland with a right shoulder contusion. Andre Jacksonfilled in for Antetokounmpo in the starting unit against the Cavaliers and will likely drop back to the bench for Saturday's matchup. The UConn product hasn't been a viable fantasy option during his rookie year.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) is out on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Antetokounmpo is a late addition to the injury report with a right shoulder contusion, and Milwaukee has consecutive road games coming up against the last-place Detroit Pistons, so it remains unclear if Antetokounmpo's absence will extend into Saturday's game. While the Greek Freak continues to hurt fantasy managers with free-throw shooting and turnovers, points-league players are embracing his 31.2 points, 11.4 rebounds, 5.9 assists, and 2.4 combined steals plus blocks per game in 2023-24. Antetokounmpo's absence is a huge upgrade for Cleveland's entire offense, namely Jarrett Allen. Damian Lillard will be Milwaukee's offensive centerpiece on Wednesday, and more will be asked of Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez. Pat Connaughton and Bobby Portis are candidates for more run.

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Miami. He's been struck by an illness and couldn't play Monday versus Boston. Now, Gary Trent Jr. might have to sit out a second consecutive content. The 24-year-old is averaging close to 26 minutes a night off the Toronto bench this season and is a fairly significant miss for the team. Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett received a large workload without Trent Jr. on Monday, while Dennis Schroder was the biggest beneficiary from the second unit.

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) wasn't listed on the injury report until later Monday evening and he was already ruled out with a non-COVID illness. He's been receiving around 25 minutes a night, so it leaves a big hole in the bench unit. Gradey Dick (thumb) was also ruled out, so the backcourt is pretty thin going into this contest against the Boston Celtics. Dennis Schroder would be the best streaming option off of the bench even though Garrett Temple may get a handful of minutes if needed. Trent has been a quality option for threes this season, but his point and steal totals haven't been as high as normal throughout his six seasons in the league.
