Sat Feb 21 201513:30Knight should be available for Saturday's game against Bulls
Knight should be available for Saturday's game against the Bulls, Tim Kempton of suns.com reports.
Knight will likely join the starting lineup alongside Eric Bledsoe, although it's possible the former Buck will come off the bench in his Suns debut. It's unclear how the trade will impact Knight's production, as the impact of sharing a backcourt with Bledsoe may be negated by the Suns' pace, along with the expectation that Knight will still log 30-plus minutes each night.
Fri Feb 20 201512:30Brandon Knight: Won't Play Friday
Knight will not play in Friday's game against the Timberwolves, but he may be available for Saturday's game against the Bulls, Kyle Ratke of timberwolves.com reports.
No surprise here, as it often takes a few days for a trade to be processed. Knight figures to join the starting lineup soon enough, but look for Gerald Green to get heavy run Friday night, with Archie Goodwin, Reggie Bullock and P.J. Tucker also candidates to benefit from added minutes.
Thu Feb 19 201515:07Brandon Knight: Traded to Suns
Knight was traded to the Suns on Thursday, Yahoo! Sports reports.
Knight's value could take a hit with the Suns, but they've also moved Goran Dragic (Heat) and Isaiah Thomas (Celtics) in the last hour of the trade deadline, so it's possible Knight will have plenty of run with the Suns over the final two months. If you have Knight on your roster, hold steady with him. His value should be relatively close to what he had with the Bucks.

Knight (quad) had 24 points (7-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds, and eight assists in 36 minutes in the overtime win against the Lakers on Wednesday.
Knight missed the Monday win over the Raptors, but was able to play his normal complement of minutes, including the extra period. This was his first 20-point game since Jan. 19.
Wed Feb 4 201518:28Brandon Knight: (Quad) Returning Wednesday
Knight (quad) will return to action Wednesday against the Lakers.
Coach Jason Kidd confirmed Knight will be available Wednesday after missing Monday's win over the Raptors. Expect Knight to reclaim the starting point guard spot, which will push Jorge Gutierrez back to the bench.

Knight (quad) is considered probable to play Wednesday against the Lakers, Greg Matzek of 620 WTMJ reports.
Knight sat out Monday's win over Toronto with a minor quad issue, but he'll likely be back in the lineup Tuesday, which would push Jorge Gutierrez back to the bench. A final call on Knight's status may not come until close to game-time, so be sure to check back prior to the 8:00 PM ET tip.
Tue Feb 3 201515:14Knight (quad) said he's feeling better Tuesday
Knight (quad) said he's feeling better Tuesday, but he remains questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Lakers, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.
Knight was a surprise scratch from Monday's game against the Raptors with a minor quad injury. He was optimistic when asked about the issue Monday night, stating that he does not anticipate missing multiple games. That said, Milwaukee will be cautious with its leading scorer, so it wouldn't necessarily be a surprise if he's held out against a poor Lakers team Wednesday.
Mon Feb 2 201523:06Knight (quadriceps) aiming to play Wednesday against Lakers
Knight (quadriceps) is aiming to play Wednesday against the Lakers, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Coach Jason Kidd said that Knight is currently getting treatment on his sore quad in the hope that he won't miss two-straight games. Despite the optimism, Knight will likely be considered a game-time decision with an update on his status coming after Wednesday's morning shootaround.
Mon Feb 2 201518:19Brandon Knight: (Quad) Will Sit Out Monday
Knight (quad) will not play Monday against the Raptors, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.
Knight will miss his first game of the season, and with the Bucks already missing Kendall Marshall (knee), recent 10-day contract signee Jorge Gutierrez will get the start. While Jerryd Bayless would seem like the more logical choice, Jason Kidd is likely aiming to keep his strong bench unit, which has played at an extremely high level of late, together. Consider Knight questionable to play Wednesday against the Lakers.
Mon Jan 19 201522:43Knight scored 20 points (7-21 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT) to go along w...
Knight scored 20 points (7-21 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT) to go along with five rebounds, five assists, four steals and one block in 41 minutes Monday against the Raptors.
Knight put up excellent counting stats Monday, but shot less than 46 percent from the field for the first time in his last five games. His shooting percentage is right around 45 percent this season, which would be his career high. He has taken his game and fantasy value to the next level so far this season.
Wed Jan 14 201517:14Knight off to strong start in January, averaging 19.2 points, 5....
Knight is off to a strong start in January, averaging 19.2 points, 5.0 assists and 2.3 rebounds through six games.
Knight is also shooting 47.9 percent from the field, up from 45.7 percent in December. He's also shooting a healthy 39.3 percent from beyond the arc and hitting nearly two three-pointers per game. The 23-year-old is posting a career-best 18.6 PER for the season and is on pace for career-highs in true shooting percentage, rebound percentage, assist percentage, win shares and usage rate.
Tue Dec 23 201422:46Knight had season high 34 points (13-21 FG, 4-7 3PT, 4-4 FT) in ...
Knight had a season high 34 points (13-21 FG, 4-7 3PT, 4-4 FT) in as many minutes, while adding five assists in Tuesday's loss to Charlotte.
With this 34 point effort, Knight became the the first Buck to score 30 or more points through the teams first 29 games. With their star rookie Jabari Parker out for the season, Milwaukee will continue to look for Knight to be their main scorer.
Fri Dec 19 201403:49Knight scored 20 points (6-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and added fiv...
Knight scored 20 points (6-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and added five rebounds, four assists and two steals in 38 minutes of work on Thursday against the Kings.
Knight is averaging 21.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.0 three-pointers over his last four games, all while playing 35 minutes per game. He is putting in healthy fantasy lines, but he is lacking solid assist production. Yet he remains a great fantasy option, but hopefully you couple Knight with another guard or forward who can help with the assist numbers.
Mon Dec 15 201423:52Knight scored 20 points (7-18 FG, 0-3 3P, 6-6 FT) with seven reb...
Knight scored 20 points (7-18 FG, 0-3 3P, 6-6 FT) with seven rebounds, four assists and a steal in 39 minutes during Monday's win over the Suns.
That's back-to-back 20+ point nights for Knight, who continues to be the engine of the Bucks' offense. If Jabari Parker's knee injury proves to be as serious as it appeared, expect Knight's usage to go up even more.
Mon Dec 8 201406:39Knight played 28 minutes, scoring 16 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3PT, 7-...
Knight played 28 minutes, scoring 16 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3PT, 7-7 FT) and dishing out 5 assists.
It looks like Knight has somewhat come back down to earth in the scoring category, but this was expected given the Bucks' current point guard rotation.
Fri Dec 5 201423:53Knight limited by foul trouble to 21 minutes in win over Miami o...
Knight was limited by foul trouble to 21 minutes in the win over Miami on Friday. He had 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, and three assists.
In his two previous games, Knight averaged 26.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 3.5 steals, so his Friday production was low. Kendall Marshall had the hot hand in the fourth quarter, so Knight was rested for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.
Wed Dec 3 201423:56Knight scored 25 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3P, 7-7 FT) with six rebou...
Knight scored 25 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3P, 7-7 FT) with six rebounds, five assists and four steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Mavericks.
That's back-to-back 25+ point games for Knight, who continues to thrive as Milwaukee's go-to player. Unless younger players like Jabari Parker become more consistent threats and start shouldering some of the scoring load themselves, Knight seems headed for a career year.
Tue Dec 2 201422:25Knight had 27 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, ...
Knight had 27 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, eight assists, and three steals in 37 minutes in the loss against Cleveland on Tuesday.
Knight suffered a slight dip in production in the previous week with a combined 33 points in three games. He woke up in Cleveland and hit a season-high five 3-pointers. Hopefully, the slump is over.
Wed Nov 26 201423:25Knight scored 15 points (3-11 FG, 1-3 3P, 8-8 FT) with three ste...
Knight scored 15 points (3-11 FG, 1-3 3P, 8-8 FT) with three steals, two rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Timberwolves.
It was an off night for Knight in both shooting and dishing assists, but he still chipped in solid value thanks to the steals. The Bucks' point guard seems headed for a career season, and has been the one constant in coach Jason Kidd's lineups this year.
Tue Nov 25 201423:14Knight (quad) played through injury Tuesday
Knight (quad) played through his injury Tuesday. He put up 20 points (7-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, and two steals in 32 minutes.
Knight got off to a prolific start to the season and has come back down to Earth of late. Over his last five games, Knight is averaging 18 points, 3.4 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.2 stals, and 2.0 three-pointers in 35 minutes per game. Those are great numbers, and considering where he was drafted this season, Knight has been a steal for his fantasy managers. Feel free to ride or die on Knight this season. He's in a great situation and doing a wonderful job across the board.
