Bucks' Khris Middleton: Won't play Friday
Middleton (knee) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against the Jazz.
Middleton was a late addition to the injury report, and he ultimately won't play in the first leg of the Bucks' back-to-back. With Middleton unavailable, expect Pat Connaughton to slide into the starting lineup and see an uptick in minutes. Middleton's next chance to return to the court will be Saturday against the Nuggets.

Bucks' Bobby Portis: Comes off bench for double-double
Portis chipped in 19 points (7-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-8 FT), 10 rebounds and one steal in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 130-94 win over San Antonio.
Portis struggled to get going early, going just 2-of-8 from the floor for seven points in the first half while adding only two rebounds. He turned things around after the break, however, knocking down five of six field-goal attempts for 12 points to go along with eight boards and a steal. The Bucks' forward finished with 19 points and 10 rebounds on the night to notch his fourth double-double this month. The one blemish on the night for Portis came at the free-throw line, where he went just 2-of-8 and he's now shooting a season-low 62.5 percent from the charity stripe in March.

Bucks' Khris Middleton: Dishes game-high 10 assists
Middleton closed with 19 points (8-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 assists, three rebounds and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 130-94 win over San Antonio.
Middleton recorded double-digit assists for just the second time this season, with seven of his game-high 10 dimes coming in the first half. The Bucks built a 28-point lead after three quarters that resulted in Middleton and other key regulars losing out on playing time, but he still saw enough minutes to secure his fourth double-double of the campaign.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Throttles Spurs in limited minutes
Antetokounmpo racked up 31 points (14-23 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-5 FT), 14 rebounds, two assists and one block over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 130-94 victory over San Antonio.
Though Antetokounmpo's minutes were capped due to the blowout, he made quick work of the Spurs despite playing only half of the game. He nearly had a double-double by halftime (18 points, nine rebounds) and didn't slow down during his limited playing time in the second half to pace both sides in both scoring and boards. The superstar big man has scored at least 30 points in five of eight games this month while grabbing double-digit rebounds in four of his last five outings.

Bucks' Thanasis Antetokounmpo: Good to go Wednesday
Antetokounmpo (personal) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Spurs.
Antetokounmpo appears to have returned to the team and could play Wednesday. However, his last appearance was on Mar. 1, and he hasn't logged more than five minutes in a game since early January, so his return shouldn't make much of a fantasy impact.

Bucks' AJ Green: Scores 23 with Herd
Green logged 23 points (8-17 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one steal across 34 minutes during the Herd's 129-114 win over Grand Rapids on Tuesday.
Currently, Green is part of Milwaukee's G League team. It is unclear how long he will be there. But while part of the Herd, Green is expected to be one of their best options moving forward. Across the few G League games he has logged with them this season, Green averaged 21.1 points and 4.9 rebounds.

Bucks' Joe Ingles: Dishes out five dimes in win
Ingles finished with six points (2-4 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 21 minutes in Sunday's 118-111 win over the Raptors.
Considering that Ingles tore his ACL last February and turned 35 years old in October, expectations for the veteran wing were rightfully tempered heading into the season. However, since he was cleared to make his season debut Dec. 19, Ingles has emerged as arguably the most important bench piece for Milwaukee with the exception of Bobby Portis. Though he doesn't get enough usage or minutes to warrant a permanent roster spot outside of 14-team leagues or deeper, Ingles' averages of 3.8 assists and 2.9 three-pointers per game thus far in March make him a useful enough streaming option for both categories, particularly on occasions when the Bucks are missing one of their top top three playmakers (Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday).

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Erupts for 26 points in win
Lopez finished with 26 points (9-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 31 minutes in Sunday's 118-111 win over the Raptors.
On a night in which Milwaukee had all of its regular starters available, Lopez finished as the Bucks' surprise scoring leader, inching out both Giannis Antetokounmpo (22 points) and Khris Middleton (20 points). Even though Lopez has been on somewhat of an offensive spree to begin March -- he's averaging 22.0 points on 58.3 percent shooting from the field and 42.6 percent from three-point range through nine outings -- the veteran center will likely settle into more of a secondary role behind Antetokounmpo, Middleton and perhaps even Jrue Holiday once his red-hot efficiency inevitably drops off a bit. Even if his offensive production cools, Lopez should still be a useful lineup option for fantasy managers thanks to his immense production as a shot blocker.
