Khris Middleton's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) appears to be close to making his season debut. ESPN's Shams Charania reported Wednesday that Middleton has been medically cleared to play and is currently in the middle of a ramp-up process. Middleton had surgery on both ankles in the offseason. According to Bucks head coach Doc Rivers, he has returned to three-on-three work in practice. Middleton's return would be a major boost for a team that has struggled out of the gate, going 6-9. However, it remains to be seen how quickly Middleton can make an impact in fantasy hoops. The former All-Star averaged 15.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 5.3 assists last season.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) will miss another game as he rehabs from ankle surgery in the off-season. This doesn't come as surprising news as there haven't been many updates on his injury status in practice lately. While he remains out, Gary Trent Jr. and Taurean Prince continue to see big minutes with the starting five. The Bucks fell to 1-5 to start the year though, so they'll be looking forward to inserting Middleton into the lineup when he's ready.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankles) remains out for Sunday's meeting with the Brooklyn Nets. He continues to work his way back from offseason ankle surgeries. However, the veteran still isn't ready to go, and the Bucks don't plan on rushing him back. Of course, Giannis Antetokounmpo will lead the offense. But until Middleton returns to the court, Taurean Prince, averaging 13.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 83.3% shooting from deep this season, is worth streaming.

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton (ankle) will miss another game as he still recovers from surgery in the offseason. The veteran hasn't been cleared for full participation in practice yet and the team said they were cautiously getting him ready to play, therefore he's officially been ruled out on Friday. While his timetable to return remains unclear, fantasy managers can continue to go to their backup plan. Gary Trent Jr. (calf) is also questionable, so if he doesn't play as well, look for Pat Connaughton and Delon Wright to receive a lot more opportunities against the Chicago Bulls.

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is expected to miss the team's season opener against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. Shams Charania reports that the team is "cautiously progressing Middleton toward a return." There hasn't been mention of a specific timetable as he continues to rehab from multiple ankle surgeries. While Middleton works his way back, newly acquired Gary Trent Jr. should see more opportunities along with Taurean Prince and Pat Connaughton. Delon Wright may even get into the mix, but it looks like Trent has the most value of the bunch.
