Bucks' Khris Middleton: Out once again Saturday
Middleton (ankle) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Cavaliers.
Middleton has yet to debut in the 2024-25 campaign while recovering from surgeries on both ankles during the offseason. The Bucks continue to treat the 33-year-old as day-to-day, though there is no set timetable for his return. Middleton's next chance to play will come Monday in a rematch with Cleveland.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Expected to play Saturday
Antetokounmpo is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Cavaliers due to right patella tendinitis.
Antetokounmpo has yet to miss a game this season and isn't expected to do so Saturday despite dealing with a knee issue. The superstar forward has played at least 31 minutes in each of his five appearances in 2024-25.

Bucks' Taurean Prince: Four steals vs. Memphis
Prince ended with five points (2-8 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and four steals across 27 minutes during Thursday's 122-99 loss to the Grizzlies.
Prince was responsible for four of the Bucks' 10 steals Thursday, but he didn't make much of a dent in the box score otherwise. Even with Damian Lillard's shooting struggles, Prince isn't expected to see heavy usage on offense alongside Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Drains three triples vs. Memphis
Lopez supplied 12 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes during Thursday's 122-99 loss to the Grizzlies.
Lopez led the Bucks in three-point makes Thursday as Milwaukee shot just 9-for-42 from beyond the arc, and he managed to finish with the second-most points on the team behind Giannis Antetokounmpo (37). Lopez has scored in double digits in four of the first five games of the regular season, though he isn't expected to see a ton of volume on offense while playing alongside Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.

Bucks' Damian Lillard: Continues to struggle with shot
Lillard produced four points (1-12 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Thursday's 122-99 loss to the Grizzlies.
Lillard's four-point outing Thursday tied a career low as he continues to struggle with his efficiency from the floor. Over his last three games, Lillard has shot just 32.5 percent from the field, including 3-for-21 from beyond the arc. Things won't get easier for Lillard and the Bucks as they head back to Milwaukee to play Cleveland on Saturday in the first leg of a home-and-home series.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Totals 37 points in loss
Antetokounmpo tallied 37 points (17-22 FG, 3-8 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block in 34 minutes during Thursday's 122-99 loss to the Grizzlies.
Antetokounmpo was one of the lone bright spots for Milwaukee in the team's fourth consecutive loss, leading the way with a game-high 37 points. The star forward has now finished with 30 or more points in three of his last four appearances and has reached double-digit rebounds in all five games to begin the 2024-25 campaign.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Good to go Thursday
Antetokounmpo (knee) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Grizzlies, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Antetokoumpo was initially added to the injury report as probable due to right patella tendinitis, and the club has since given him the green light to suit up for Thursday's matchup. He's coming off his second 30-point outing of the season and will aim to get the Bucks back on track following three consecutive losses.

Bucks' Khris Middleton: Remains out
Middleton (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Middleton hasn't been cleared for 5-on-5 work and remains without a return timetable, but the Bucks continue to treat him as day-to-day. Taurean Prince continues to start at small forward in Middleton's absence, while the latter's next chance to suit up will come Saturday versus Cleveland.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Probable for Thursday
Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Antetokounmpo continues to be listed on the injury report with right patella tendinitis, but he's yet to miss a game. He's recorded a double-double in each of Milwaukee's first four games, averaging 28.8 points, 11.8 rebounds and 6.3 assists in 34.5 minutes per game.

Bucks' Bobby Portis: Plays season-low 19 minutes
Portis contributed four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds and one block across 19 minutes during Monday's 119-108 loss to the Celtics.
This was Portis' worst performance of the young season, resulting in just 19 minutes off the bench. He was productive in his previous three games, however, so fantasy managers should brush this off as a simple off night for the veteran forward. For the season, he's hitting 51.3 percent of his shots from the field.
