Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) remains out on Sunday versus Philadelphia. This will mark the veteran's seventh consecutive absence because of an ankle injury, which occurred before the All-Star break. While Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Damian Lillard should pick up the slack offensively, Bobby Portis, averaging 17.2 points and 7.1 boards without Middleton active this season, commands consideration for all fantasy lineups.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) won't play on Thursday versus Memphis. The oft-injured veteran remains out because of a sprained left knee, an ailment that will keep him out of the lineup for a fifth consecutive contest. That said, the All-Star break is around the corner, giving Middleton more time to work his way back. But even if he manages to return for the matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves on February 23, fantasy managers should expect him to miss more games at some point heading into the postseason. Middleton is also averaging 11.6 points during the 2023-24 campaign, so he's nowhere near the player he once was. At any rate, until the 32-year-old is back in uniform, Jae Crowder could remain in the starting lineup, although he's not someone who can be counted on for fantasy production, at least not consistently.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) remains out for Monday's game versus the Denver Nuggets. A sprained left ankle sustained early in last Tuesday's loss to the Phoenix Suns will cost Middleton a third contest in a row, and head coach Doc Rivers didn't sound optimistic about the veteran forward's chances of returning before the All-Star break following Friday's blowout win over the Charlotte Hornets. Middleton should be considered doubtful at best when the Bucks host the Miami Heat on Tuesday. Jae Crowder has directly benefitted fantasy-wise from Middleton's absence, averaging 12.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.7 three-pointers in 35.6 minutes over his past three appearances, but he'll be a low-end streamer in a tough matchup on Monday against a Nuggets team that's giving up the sixth-fewest points per game (111.0) in the Association this year.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is out for Friday's tilt versus the Charlotte Hornets. Middleton left the arena in a walking boot and crutches following Tuesday's defeat to the Phoenix Suns after spraining his left ankle, so he was up against a quick turnaround to suit up on Friday. The Bucks will have a few days off before Monday's showdown with the Denver Nuggets, marking Middleton's next chance to return to the lineup. Jae Crowder (ankle), who is probable on Friday, led Milwaukee's starters in points (21), rebounds (eight), three-pointers (four), and minutes (37) amid Thursday's blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Against a Hornets team that ranks last in opponent field-goal percentage (50.5%), Crowder would be a solid short-term source of points, triples, and steals if upgraded to available.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) won't play in Thursday's contest versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. Middleton sprained his left ankle after landing on Kevin Durant's foot on a three-point attempt early in Tuesday's loss to the Phoenix Suns, limiting him to eight minutes of play, and The Athletic's Eric Nehm reported that Middleton left the arena in a walking boot and crutches. The Bucks host the Charlotte Hornets on Friday for the second outing of a four-game homestand, so the 32-year-old three-time All-Star is facing a short turnaround if he wants to suit up by then. Three-and-D wing Jae Crowder (ankle) is expected to play and is a likely candidate to fill Middleton's role in Milwaukee's starting five, putting him in play in DFS, but the matchup against a Minnesota squad allowing the fewest points per game (107.1) couldn't be any worse.
