Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) will be available to play in Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The sharpshooter sat out Wednesday's game versus the Orlando Magic due to left ankle injury management, but he will be able to suit up for this next contest against one of the top teams in the Western Conference. Both Damian Lillard (adductor) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) are not playing, which will likely put a lot of playmaking responsibility into the hands of Middleton.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) isn't available for Wednesday's clash with Orlando. The 32-year-old logged 33 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Boston Celtics, finishing with 12 points, nine assists, and six boards. However, he also turned the ball over seven times. Nonetheless, it's the second game of a back-to-back, so Middleton will take the night off to rest. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) also sidelined for this one, Damian Lillard, Bobby Portis, and Brook Lopez should pick things up on the scoring end. At the same time, AJ Green, Pat Connaughton, Jae Crowder, and ... [More]

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (quadriceps) will be available for Tuesday's marquee matchup against the Celtics. He has shaken off a quadriceps injury and also looks to have recovered from a mouth trauma, which limited Middleton to only 13 minutes on Sunday against the Knicks. The three-time All-Star has averaged 13.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 6.7 assists in three priors meetings with Boston this season.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (quadriceps) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Celtics. His presence on the injury report isn't anything DFS managers aren't used to at this point. However, although the veteran might be on the floor versus Boston, there's a chance he won't suit in Wednesday's encounter with Orlando, especially since he took a shot to the face in Sunday's loss to the Knicks. Nonetheless, the 32-year-old scored at least 21 points in two of his last three appearances. But if Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is ruled out, Middleton's ceiling could increase significantly.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton played only 13 minutes against the Knicks on Sunday, exiting the contest after getting hit in the mouth. The Bucks star took an inadvertent hit to the mouth area from New York's Donte DiVincenzo in the second quarter. Bucks head coach Doc Rivers said postgame that Middleton got a tooth knocked out in the incident. While this wasn't a serious trauma, fantasy managers will still need to monitor Middleton's status closely ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Boston. Bobby Portis would be a guy to target if Middleton can't play, with Jae Crowder his likeliest replacement in the starting unit.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is listed as out for Wednesday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. After falling to the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, the Bucks will manage the left ankle of Middleton on the second night of their back-to-back. The veteran forward should be good to go for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Jae Crowder figures to enter the starting five in Middleton's absence, but he's only averaged 5.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.0 threes in 23 games as a starter in 2023-24. Fantasy managers can do better on Wednesday's nine-game slate, but Memphis is giving up the second-most treys to opposing small forwards (3.1).

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards. His presence on the injury report is nothing new, so barring a setback, he should be out there. The 32-year-old had a strong showing in Saturday's win over Toronto, finishing with 21 points, six boards, and six assists. He also shot 9-for-10 from the field and made all three attempts from behind the arc. With that in mind, Damian Lillard (groin) won't play, so Middleton has a chance of having another stellar outing.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is listed as probable for Saturday's matchup against Atlanta. He's set to make his fourth consecutive appearance, although the team hasn't yet fully confirmed his availability. Middleton has notched 14.8 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 7.2 assists in 31.4 minutes since returning from an ankle injury a couple of weeks back. A clash with the Hawks is one of the best fantasy matchups a player can get, so Middleton shouldn't disappoint managers on Saturday if he's in the lineup.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is expected to play on Thursday against the Pelicans. The veteran was sidelined for over a month because of a sprained ankle. However, he's been back in the lineup in four of Milwaukee's previous five games. Middleton has had a few solid showings since his return. But he scored only 12 points in Tuesday's double-overtime loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. At any rate, his fantasy ceiling is still higher than most. Yet, the 32-year-old is not as consistent as he used to be.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against the Lakers. He's only just returned from a lengthy absence, and the team wants to be careful with Middleton's workload. But Milwaukee had the day off on Monday, and there's no back-to-back in sight, clearing the way for Middleton to play. The three-time All-Star is fresh off his second career triple-double, having picked up 11 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists against Oklahoma City on Sunday. Middleton is averaging 18.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 7.7 assists in 28.3 minutes since his return.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is good to go for Sunday's matchup against OKC. He didn't play on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets to rest the ankle issue that kept him off the floor for over a month. However, the 32-year-old was listed as probable heading into this contest, so most had assumed he'd be available. As always, Middleton should be in any fantasy starting lineup, even with a tough matchup on the horizon.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is probable for Sunday's clash with OKC. Middleton missed over a month because of an ankle injury. However, he's appeared in two of the Bucks' previous three games, so he got the night off on Thursday against Brooklyn. That said, the 32-year-old logged 32 minutes in his most recent game. As a result, Middleton is someone to consider for all fantasy formats, including those participating in DFS contests.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against the Brooklyn Nets. Following Wednesday's narrow road loss to the first-place Boston Celtics, the Bucks will use Thursday's matchup against an inferior opponent to manage the left ankle that shelved Middleton for over a month of action between February and March. Sunday's showdown with the Oklahoma City Thunder marks the veteran sharpshooter's next chance to take the court. Milwaukee's frontcourt could be undermanned with superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) questionable on Thursday, so the glass-cleaning Bobby Portis Jr. may be in for an expanded role. Across 24 games without Middleton this year, Portis is averaging 16.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 1.4 three-pointers and faces a Nets team that could be without interior presence Nicolas Claxton (illness).

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton isn't listed on the team's injury report for Wednesday's matchup with Boston. Middleton tweaked his ankle at the beginning of February, resulting in a multi-week stint on the shelf. However, he returned for Sunday's win over the Phoenix Suns. The 32-year-old played better than expected, amassing 22 points, seven rebounds, and one steal in just 25 minutes. Of course, Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) was ruled out, so Middleton had a chance to get more involved offensively. Nonetheless, with Antetokounmpo questionable versus the Celtics, Middleton could end up taking on a more prominent role on the scoring end. He'll also presumably see a slight bump in minutes.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Sunday's contest against Phoenix, which signals he's ready to return to the lineup. Middleton last played on Feb. 6 and has missed the past 16 games with a left ankle sprain. Jae Crowder has been filling in for him in the starting unit and appears poised to return to a bench role on Sunday. However, he could still get some extra run-outs, with Middleton possibly on a minutes restriction following his lengthy absence. There's also a chance Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) and Malik Beasley (back) sit out Sunday's action, which would further impact the rotation.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This marks the 16th game in a row that Middleton has missed due to a left ankle sprain. The Bucks have not given a timetable for Middleton's return, so fantasy managers will have to be patient. That being said, Jae Crowder should remain in the starting five and have increased fantasy value going forward.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is unavailable for Tuesday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. Middleton hasn't been seen on the court since spraining his left ankle back on Feb. 6, but the fact he was listed as questionable means he's likely closing in on a return. The 32-year-old former All-Star's next shot to suit up arrives in Thursday's matchup versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Although Jae Crowder continues to draw starts for the Bucks, Malik Beasley is the preferred fantasy streamer for points and threes in Middleton's absence, averaging 12.4 points, 3.4 triples on 41.2% shooting from deep, and 1.1 steals in 30.7 minutes across his last 16 showings.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Sacramento Kings. The veteran has been increasing his activity level in recent practice sessions and labeled day-to-day. Yet, there's still a chance Middleton won't be out there, but at least he's moving in the right direction. However, even if he does get the green light for Tuesday night, he'll likely be limited, so his fantasy ceiling will be considerably lower than usual.

According to Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers, forward Khris Middleton (ankle) has recently gone through some "hard" practices of late. Fortunately, things have gone well, with Rivers indicating that the 32-year-old is "getting closer" to getting back on the court. Middleton has averaged 14.8 points this season, one of the lowest averages of his career. However, his absence over the last month or so has been felt by fantasy managers. Nonetheless, it appears Middleton could be back within the next week or two. Yet, he will likely be limited early on, meaning it may be a while before he can be trusted to return to starting fantasy lineups.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Khris Middleton (ankle) remains out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The 32-year-old has missed over a month because of an ankle injury. He has been practicing, which is a good sign. However, it's anyone's guess when Middleton will be back on the floor. But until then, Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Damian Lillard should continue to benefit from a production standpoint. But there's room on deep-league fantasy rosters for Malik Beasley until Middleton is healthy, although he's not consistently productive.
