Sanders (illness) will not play Wednesday against the Cavaliers, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.

Sanders will miss a fourth straight game, and with Ersan Ilyasova (illness) also out again, the Bucks will remain shorthanded in the frontcourt. Expect Zaza Pachulia to start alongside rookie Johnny O'Bryant, as was the case Monday in Charlotte.

Sanders (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Hornets, C.F. Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

With Sanders now ruled out, look for Zaza Pachulia to see a steady dose of minutes in the Milwaukee frontcourt, with John Henson and Johnny O'Bryant representing additional candidates for extra minutes down low. Although Sanders won't be traveling with the team Sunday evening, there remains a chance he could join them in advance of a New Year's Eve showdown with the Cavaliers.

Sanders (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Hornets, C.F. Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Sanders has missed back-to-back games after falling ill, and it appears he's not in the clear just yet. If his symptoms take a turn for the worse, look for the Bucks to lean heavily on Zaza Pachulia with Irsan Ilyasova (concussion) already having been ruled out. John Henson would also see a steady workload if that scenario plays out.

Sanders (illness) is out Saturday against the Hawks, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.

Sanders will get a day of rest before the Bucks play the Hornets Monday. There aren't many details out on Sanders's illness, so it's hard to say for sure if he will be able to return for that game.

Sanders (illness) is unlikely to play Friday against the Hawks, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.

Sanders came down with an illness over the holiday break and did not participate in Friday's shootaround. At this point, it seems unlikely he takes the court Friday, though he hasn't officially been ruled out. Zaza Pachulia is the likely starter if Sanders can't go.

Sanders has been suspended one game by the NBA for shoving Portland's Nic Batum on Wednesday night, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports. He'll serve the suspension Thursday against Sacramento.

Sanders gave Batum a slight shove on a dunk attempt Wednesday, which caused Batum to slip off the rim and land violently on his side. The push didn't necessarily appear to be malicious, but Sanders' reputation likely doesn't work in his favor, and the league made the call to hand down a one-game ban. With Sanders, Ersan Ilyasova, Jabari Parker and John Henson all out Thursday, and with Giannis Antetokounmpo questionable, Milwaukee will be extremely shorthanded in the frontcourt.

Sanders played in just 13 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Thunder, scoring six points (2-7 FG, 2-2 FT).

This is the second time in three games that Sanders was held to less than 20 minutes of action. On Tuesday, Sanders didn't do much else in the box score, only grabbing two rebounds and adding on three steals. Zaza Pachulia played 30 minutes off the bench. Sanders has had a disappointing fantasy season, but it's still too early to move on from him in most leagues.

Sanders (illness) played 27 minutes, scoring 10 points (5-7 FG), grabbing nine boards, and blocking two shots.

Although this is not the Larry Sanders that was deserving of first round consideration two years ago, this performance is typical of the Milwaukee big man. Boards and blocks remain his calling card, but the fact that he is capable of putting up decent scoring numbers still gives him high value. Health and minutes are the real factors that contribute to Sanders' overall value in fantasy leagues, so it would be advisable to monitor both moving forward.

Sanders (illness) will start at center Sunday against the Mavericks, CF Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Sanders played through an illness Friday against Miami, but coach Jason Kidd confirmed the center is healthy and will start at center, while Zaza Pachulia comes off the bench.

Sanders (illness) is considered probable for Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Andrew Gruman of FOX Sports reports.

Sanders was able to play through his illness against the Heat on Friday, so it seems reasonable that he'll be able to do the same Sunday. However, he only spent 18 minutes on the court Sunday and there's a possibility that coach Jason Kidd may limit the center for the second-straight game.

Sanders (illness) played 18 minutes and provided six points (3-7 FG) and six rebounds in the win over Miami on Friday.

Sanders was not expected to play and saw slightly fewer minutes in the win that snapped a three-game losing streak. In his last five games, Sanders has not played more than 24 minutes with averages of 7.0 points and 4.2 rebounds.

Sanders (illness) will in fact be available off the bench Friday.

He had originally been ruled out Friday due to an illness, but he will try to play through his ailment as a reserve against Miami, with Zaza Pachulia getting the start at center.

Sanders is dealing with an illness and will not play against the Heat on Friday.

Sanders will be replaced in the starting lineup with Zaza Pachulia. The next opportunity for Sanders to return to the court will be against the Mavericks on Sunday.

Sanders only played 11 minutes Friday in a win over the Pistons, despite the Bucks already missing John Henson and Zaza Pachulia.

Sanders was in foul trouble for most of the game and had a technical, but the minutes limitation was a surprise given the lack of depth at the center position for the Bucks at this time. This was the third time Sanders played in less than 20 minutes in a game he started this season. Friday, he only scored six points and pulled down three rebounds. This inconsistency is about what owners should have expected coming into this season, but the serious limitations on his play could be a problem going forward.

Sanders scored 15 points (7-10 FG, 1-1 FT) with seven rebounds, five blocks, two assists and a steal in 28 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Timberwolves.

With John Henson (foot) sidelined, Sanders saw a season high in minutes and responded with one of his best performances of the year. If Henson's injury lingers, Sanders could get a chance to thrive despite coach Jason Kidd's rotation-juggling.

Sanders has now fully recovered from his previous thigh injury that caused him to miss Tuesday's game, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

The left thigh injury that Sanders suffered was minor in nature, although his owners should undoubtedly be relieved to hear that the injury isn't expected to affect him in the long run. He faces a full workload over the next two days as the Bucks face the Raptors on Friday and the Wizards on Saturday.

Sanders (thigh) returned from a one-game absence and provided four points (2-6 FG) and four rebounds in 14 minutes in the triple-overtime win over the Nets on Wednesday.

Sanders' minutes have been limited of late which may be related to the thigh bruise. He should be benched until he plays a stater's complement of minutes.

Sanders (thigh) is in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Nets.

Sanders missed Tuesday's contest with a thigh bruise, but will suit up and start for the second half of the back-to-back set. His activation will delegate Zaza Pachulia back to a reserve role.

Sanders (thigh) is a game-time decision Wednesday, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Charles Gardner reports.

If he is unable to play Wednesday, Zaza Pachulia will get the start at center.

Sanders (thigh) will be making the Bucks' two-game road trip, after sitting out Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.

Sanders was a late scratch in Tuesday's game against the Knicks, but will travel with the Bucks who play both the Nets and Raptors on the road in the next two games. With Sanders sitting out Tuesday, consider him questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nets. Also, considering Sanders was ruled out at the last second, it usually means the player was close to giving it a go, so the injury is not likely a serious one. Although, with Zaza Pachulia playing so well starting in his place, they may not rush Sanders back into action.
