Bucks' AJ Green: Ruled out for regular season
Rotowire
Green (ankle), who has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Thunder, will remain sidelined for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Magic.
Green suffered a left ankle sprain during Wednesday's 117-99 win over Orlando, and he underwent an MRI on Thursday that confirmed his diagnosis. The 24-year-old will miss the remainder of the regular season, but he'll receive daily treatment and evaluation as the Bucks prepare for the postseason.

Bucks' AJ Green: Sprains ankle, won't return
Rotowire
Green was ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's 117-99 win over Orlando with a left ankle sprain. He finished the game with two points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one steal across 16 minutes.
The injury explains why Green went unused for the second half of Wednesday's win. The second-year guard has been a key piece for Milwaukee off the bench during the second half of the season, so with a playoff spot clinched, the Bucks could be extra cautious with Green over the final two games of the regular season. Milwaukee returns to action Friday in Oklahoma City.

Bucks' AJ Green: Dealing with illness
Rotowire
Green is questionable for Sunday's game against Oklahoma City due to an illness.
Green hadn't been included on the Bucks' initial injury reports for Sunday's game, so the illness may be something that surfaced overnight. The second-year guard has gained traction in head coach Doc Rivers' rotation of late, appearing in each of the last five games while averaging 16.4 minutes per contest. However, the Bucks were without one of Khris Middleton (ankle) or Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) for each of the last three contests, but both are expected to play Sunday. If Green is able to overcome his illness ahead of the 7 p.m. ET tipoff, he could move into a smaller role anyway.
