Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is out again on Saturday against Miami. The 31-year-old has played only seven games this season because of various ailments, so his absence isn't a surprise by any means. Without a timetable for Middleton's return from knee soreness, Pat Connaughton, who's averaged 8.8 points and 4.9 assists in 10 starts this season, should remain in the starting lineup. However, he's not a viable option for fantasy managers, and his 30.9% shooting from deep won't do any favors for category participants.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) was reported to have gone through "significant 5-on-5 work" in practice on Tuesday. Middleton has been out with a knee injury after missing most of the start of the season with a wrist injury. Given these reports, there is optimism Middleton will be nearing a return to the court. The Bucks have ruled out Middleton on Wednesday, but they will travel down to Miami to face the Heat on both Thursday and Saturday.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) will not play Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Middleton will miss his 13th straight game as he continues his injury-riddled season. Pat Connaughton should continue to start in Middleton's absence. Connaughton has scored in double digits in four of his last five games and is coming off a double-double in his last start.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) will miss his 12th consecutive game with knee soreness and still doesn't have a timetable for his return. Since the team ruled him out so early, it doesn't seem like he's close to coming back to the court. The Bucks are likely taking a very cautious approach to make sure Middleton is healthy come playoff time. While he's out, Pat Connaughton and MarJon Beauchamp will continue to receive a lot of those vacated minutes.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) will remain sidelined for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has been dealing with a lingering knee issue that continues to sideline him. Pat Connaughton should remain in the starting five, but is a risky streaming option. He looked awful on Wednesday, so fantasy managers might want to stay away from him. The Bucks could give Wesley Matthews and Joe Ingles more minutes, but both players are nothing more than low-end deep league streaming options.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is considered doubtful for a meeting with the Celtics on Christmas Day. He has a sore right knee and is in danger of missing his fifth consecutive game. Health issues have limited Middleton to only seven appearances this season, and he's been far from his best with averages of 11.1 points, 2.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists. Middleton's recent absence has pushed rookie MarJon Beauchamp into the starting unit, while his injury problems have also boosted the stock of Jevon Carter this season.

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Khris Middleton (knee) has been listed as doubtful to play in Friday's game vs. Brooklyn as he battles a sore right knee. Middleton has missed each of Milwaukee's three prior outings and has not looked himself during seven appearances in 2022-23, coming off an MCL sprain that ended his previous campaign. While the three-time All-Star has retained his starting role, he has averaged just 11.1 PPG and shot just 32.5 percent overall. MarJon Beauchamp has started each of the Bucks' two prior contests and has scored in double figures in three of his last four games, giving him some upside DFS appeal. Middleton's next best shot at suiting up comes Christmas Day against the Celtics.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) isn't expected to play on Wednesday versus Cleveland. The veteran missed his previous two games because of knee soreness, so if he's out again, rookie MarJon Beauchamp could be in line for another start. The 22-year-old has averaged only 8.1 points and 5.0 rebounds in seven starts this season, so he's not someone who can be relied on for consistent production.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) was forced to exit the team's last game with an ankle injury, but it seems as though it wasn't too serious. He's officially listed as probable to play on Tuesday night, so he won't be missing any time. This comes as great news for both the team and fantasy managers since he missed so many games in the beginning of the season. If Jrue Holiday can't suit up, Middleton will likely see a bigger part of the offensive usage.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton wasn't able to complete Sunday's game against Houston because of a left ankle sprain. He played for only six minutes and failed to register any stats. This was only his fifth game since making his season debut, so it's a very unfortunate blow for Middleton if he's forced to miss any time again. The team hasn't yet provided an update on his status. With Middleton on the shelf following wrist surgery, the Bucks rolled with Jevon Carter as a starter to open the season and he will be a strong candidate to replace him again. The 27-year-old has averaged 9.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals in 27.5 minutes as a starter this season.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (conditioning) will suit up for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. He made his season debut on Friday, but sat out on Saturday as a precaution. The Bucks feel confident enough to let Middleton suit up for this game after resting on Saturday. His return will move Jordan Nwora to the bench where he won't have much streaming appeal. Fantasy managers in season-long formats should make sure Middleton is in their lineups for Monday's slate.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (wrist) is on track to make his season debut on Friday versus the Lakers. He's been recovering from offseason wrist surgery, and it's been a long road back, with Middleton having got the procedure done back in July. Middleton's return is bad news for Jevon Carter, who has been starting in his place. However, the 27-year-old could still carry some fantasy value, as he's played well so far and should maintain a decent role on the team. Middleton might not be at his best right away, but it shouldn't take long for the three-time All-Star to prove his worth to fantasy managers.

The Milwaukee Bucks still have no debut date for power forward Khris Middleton (wrist). With the Bucks sitting second in the league, perhaps rushing Middleton back is unnecessary. Still, the Bucks offense has suffered without Giannis Antetokounmpo's running mate. Middleton's return adds another wrinkle to the Bucks offense. Ranked 18th in offensive rating, Milwaukee has championship potential, but the offense must improve. According to head coach Mike Budenholzer, Middleton's return is "close." Fantasy managers should hold onto Middleton, as dumping him would be costly.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (wrist) is taking another step in his rehab and getting back to practice. For now, he's going to practice with the Wisconsin Herd, the Bucks' G League affiliate. We're still at least a couple of weeks away from seeing Middleton suit up, but this is promising news for any fantasy managers that have him occupying an IR spot. When he returns, he's sure to be a top-50 fantasy player, but maybe taking a few more rest days so the team can protect him until the playoffs.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (wrist) is now expected to miss the first few weeks of the season. He's still rehabbing from his offseason wrist surgery. The Bucks missed his production dearly last postseason. In 66 games last year, he averaged 20.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.2 steals per game on 44.3% from the floor and 37.3% from deep. This news isn't too shocking, as he was expected to miss at least the first week. Fantasy managers should hang on to Middleton until he comes back, because he's going to give a lot of value once he returns to his second-option role alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (wrist) won't be available at the beginning of the regular season. The veteran missed the final 10 games of the postseason because of a left knee injury while also having surgery in July to repair a torn ligament in his wrist. Middleton averaged 20.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists while shooting 37.3% from behind the arc. With that said, Milwaukee certainly wasn't the same without Middleton, so the team hopes to get him back as soon as possible, although preserving him for a deep playoff run will be a priority. Nonetheless, Pat Connaughton is the favorite to fill the void in the starting lineup until Middleton or Joe Ingles (knee) are ready to roll.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (wrist) underwent surgery in early July to repair a torn ligament. The recent update surrounding the veteran comes after he missed the final 10 games of the postseason because of a left knee injury. The Bucks will undoubtedly need him healthy and on the floor, especially after averaging 20.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists throughout 66 appearances last season. Nonetheless, despite the ailments, the 30-year-old is expected to be good to go for the start of the regular season in October. When available, Middleton is one of the most potent all-around fantasy options going. However, he's played an entire season just twice throughout his 10-year career, so fantasy managers should anticipate being without him for at least a few contests during the 2022-23 campaign.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's Game 7 against the Boston Celtics. This shouldn't come as a shock since Middleton is still recovering from an MCL sprain. The Bucks still haven't given a timetable for Middleton, so he could very well miss more games, assuming the Bucks advance. Wesley Matthews, Grayson Allen, and Pat Connaughton have seen more playing time with Middleton out. Connaughton is the best DFS option out of the three of them. Jrue Holiday and Giannis Antetokounmpo will be asked to carry the load on offense for Sunday's contest.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) doesn't appear to have made much progress on the court. Head coach Mike Budenholzer says Middleton is making progress, but they don't have a timetable for his return. That being said, fantasy managers should expect Middleton to miss the remainder of this series against the Boston Celtics. Jrue Holiday dropped 24 points during their Game 5 victory. Holiday should continue to take more shots with Middleton sidelined for the foreseeable future.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) won't play on Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. There were rumblings that he could have been back for Game 5. Yet, that's not happening, although the 30-year-old is moving in the right direction regarding his recovery from a sprained left MCL. Nonetheless, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is averaging 32 points, 13 boards, eight assists, and one block during the series, should be an automatic lock for DFS managers while Middleton is away. Jrue Holiday may also continue to get additional opportunities on the offensive end. However, he'll need to get some of his shots to fall to maximize his value
