Washington Wizards DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon (foot) will remain on the sidelines for a fourth consecutive game on Sunday versus Oklahoma City. The former Sixth Man of the Year is dealing with a plantar fascia contusion in his right foot. Jared Butler has re-entered the rotation with Brogdon out, logging 20-plus minutes in four consecutive contests. He has put in some strong performances, averaging 18.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 5.3 assists over that span. However, Butler's success might not continue on Sunday, as the Wizards face a team that has by far the league's best defensive rating (103.3).

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is expected to suit up on Sunday versus the Knicks, with the team listing him as probable for the game. Middleton was out on Monday against Toronto due to ankle tendinitis but has been a regular in the lineup following his season debut in December. Since returning to action, Middleton has come off the bench, averaging 9.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists. He may have a bit more success on Sunday, as the Knicks allow the ninth-most bench points in the league.

Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports that Milwaukee Bucks forwardKhris Middleton (ankle) is available for Friday's matchup with the Orlando Magic.

The Milwaukee Bucks X account announced that Milwaukee Bucks forwardKhris Middleton(ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. Middleton is expected to play in his second straight contest on Friday despite dealing with bilateral ankle issues. If the 33-year-old does suit up he will likely come off the bench like against the Spurs on Thursday. He posted eight points, five rebounds and three assists in 21 minutes during the 121-105 Bucks win.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is available ahead of Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Middleton will make his way back to the court after sitting out Monday's contest for rest purposes. The Bucks have decided to shake up their lineups and will move Taurean Prince into their starting five for now. Middleton has been a decent fantasy contributor with a three-game stretch of 20 points or more in late December. His fantasy value and playing time are certainly going to take a hit coming off the bench. Price is a low-end streaming option due to his defensive ability.
