Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is unavailable for Tuesday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. Middleton hasn't been seen on the court since spraining his left ankle back on Feb. 6, but the fact he was listed as questionable means he's likely closing in on a return. The 32-year-old former All-Star's next shot to suit up arrives in Thursday's matchup versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Although Jae Crowder continues to draw starts for the Bucks, Malik Beasley is the preferred fantasy streamer for points and threes in Middleton's absence, averaging 12.4 points, 3.4 triples on 41.2% shooting from deep, and 1.1 steals in 30.7 minutes across his last 16 showings.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Sacramento Kings. The veteran has been increasing his activity level in recent practice sessions and labeled day-to-day. Yet, there's still a chance Middleton won't be out there, but at least he's moving in the right direction. However, even if he does get the green light for Tuesday night, he'll likely be limited, so his fantasy ceiling will be considerably lower than usual.
According to Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers, forward Khris Middleton (ankle) has recently gone through some "hard" practices of late. Fortunately, things have gone well, with Rivers indicating that the 32-year-old is "getting closer" to getting back on the court. Middleton has averaged 14.8 points this season, one of the lowest averages of his career. However, his absence over the last month or so has been felt by fantasy managers. Nonetheless, it appears Middleton could be back within the next week or two. Yet, he will likely be limited early on, meaning it may be a while before he can be trusted to return to starting fantasy lineups.
Milwaukee Bucks guard Khris Middleton (ankle) remains out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The 32-year-old has missed over a month because of an ankle injury. He has been practicing, which is a good sign. However, it's anyone's guess when Middleton will be back on the floor. But until then, Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Damian Lillard should continue to benefit from a production standpoint. But there's room on deep-league fantasy rosters for Malik Beasley until Middleton is healthy, although he's not consistently productive.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) will remain sidelined against the Lakers on Friday. The 32-year-old hasn't been available for a month despite practicing with the team at a limited capacity. Jae Crowder has started in place of Middleton and started 16 games this season. Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles) is listed as probable for Friday's game. Should the superstar forward be unable to suit up, Crowder will be relied upon to step up.
