Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis (knee) probable Saturday vs. Lakers
Sat, Nov 15, 2025, 7:17 AM
Milwaukee Bucks
Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
Analysis: Antetokounmpo did not play in Friday's loss to Charlotte, but he was back in the lineup two days later. His probable tag ahead of the second game of a back-to-back bodes well for Giannis' availability, and fantasy managers must ensure he's in their active lineups. With Kyle Kuzma starting on Friday, Bobby Portis may be the next man up if Giannis can't play. |

Taurean Prince Taurean Prince (neck) underwent surgery Thursday
Sat, Nov 15, 2025, 2:51 AM
Milwaukee Bucks
Taurean Prince (neck) underwent surgery on Thursday to address a herniated disk in his neck and is out indefinitely.
Analysis: Prince underwent the procedure on Thursday in Los Angeles, and the Bucks announced that updates on his recovery will be provided when deemed necessary. While Prince was shooting nearly 43 percent from three on 3.5 attempts per game at the time of his injury, his minutes had decreased from 27.1 in 2024-25 to 21.1 this season. Kyle Kuzma, who has started Milwaukee's last two games, has a higher ceiling with Prince unavailable but likely needs to remain a starter to be worth the risk in standard leagues. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins has 20 points, four threes in OT win
Fri, Nov 14, 2025, 5:09 PM
Ryan Rollins had 20 points (8-of-12 FGs), eight rebounds, four assists and four three-pointers against the Hornets on Friday.
Analysis: Rollins continues to be a consistent scoring presence for the Bucks. The 23-year-old shooting guard had 20 points on 12 shots and went 4-of-6 from behind the three-point line against the Hornets on Friday. Rollins is too productive in his role to still be available in most Yahoo! leagues. |

Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma drops 29 points in OT victory vs. CHA
Fri, Nov 14, 2025, 5:06 PM
Kyle Kuzma had 29 points (11-of-17 FGs, 5-of-7 FTs), 10 rebounds, five assists, four steals, one block and two three-pointers against the Hornets on Friday.
Analysis: Kuzma remained in the starting lineup while Giannis Antetokounmpo returned from a knee injury. While it's unclear if Kuzma will remain in the starting lineup going forward, it certainly worked against the Hornets on Friday. Kuzma's 29 points were the most he's had this season and the second time he's had at least 26 points in his last three games. Fantasy managers may want to ride the hot hand with Kuzma here. The Bucks have a date with the Lakers on Saturday, and that's a revenge game for Kuzma. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis has 25/7/18 line in overtime win over CHA
Fri, Nov 14, 2025, 5:01 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 25 points (12-of-18 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), seven rebounds, 18 assists, two steals and one block in the Bucks' 147-134 overtime victory over the Hornets on Friday.
Analysis: Antetokounmpo's 18 assists tied Cade Cunningham for the most in a game this season. The 30-year-old power forward was efficient, scoring 25 points on 18 shots and finding open teammates to create offense. Giannis played 40 minutes in his first game back from a knee injury. The Bucks have a meeting with the Lakers on the second night of a back-to-back on Saturday. |

Sam Perley
Ryan Rollins, AJ Green, Kyle Kuzma, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Myles Turner will start against the Hornets on Friday.
Analysis: Kuzma started the Bucks' last game on Wednesday with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) sidelined. However, with Giannis back, Kuzma will remain in the starting lineup. Gary Trent Jr. will come off the bench, though it's not clear if this is a permanent change. |

Fri, Nov 14, 2025, 12:20 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Giannis missed Wednesday's loss against the Hornets, but will return from his knee injury on Friday as the Bucks look for payback. Expect Kyle Kuzma to shift to the bench with Antetokounmpo back in the starting lineup. Giannis is off to a great start as he's averaging 33.4 points, 11.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists in 10 games this season. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo (knee) probable vs. Charlotte
Thu, Nov 13, 2025, 12:37 PM
NBA Injury Report
Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable to play the Hornets on Friday.
Analysis: Giannis missed Wednesday's game against Charlotte but should be available for the rematch. Kyle Kuzma started in place of Antetokounmpo but will likely be pushed back to a reserve role. Giannis will look to help the Bucks get revenge after losing on Wednesday. |

Bobby Portis Bobby Portis scored 14 points vs. Charlotte
Wed, Nov 12, 2025, 3:33 PM
Bobby Portis accumulated 14 points (7-of-12 FGs), eight rebounds and one assist in Wednesday's loss to the Hornets.
Analysis: As expected, Kyle Kuzma received the starting nod with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) unavailable. However, Portis provided greater value despite coming off the bench. A double-digit scorer in three straight, the 14 points are the most in a game for Portis since he dropped a season-high 16 on November 1 against the Kings. As for Kuzma, he finished Wednesday's defeat with eight points, three rebounds, four assists, one steal and one blocked shot, shooting 3-of-12 from the field. |

Myles Turner Myles Turner records 21 points, four âstocks'
Wed, Nov 12, 2025, 3:32 PM
Myles Turner amassed 21 points (7-of-14 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, two steals, two blocks and three three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Hornets.
Analysis: The Bucks did not have Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) on the floor for Wednesday's game, which increased Turner's importance on offense. He shot the ball well, making half of his 14 attempts while also recording two steals and two blocks on defense. The lone disappointment for fantasy managers was Turner's inactivity on the boards, grabbing just three rebounds. However, he's never been the strongest rebounder, so a night like Wednesday is unsurprising. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins drops game-high 25 points in loss
Wed, Nov 12, 2025, 3:32 PM
Ryan Rollins tallied 25 points (10-of-15 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, six assists, one steal and four three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Hornets.
Analysis: Rollins continues to flourish for the Bucks, finishing Wednesday's defeat with his third 20-point game of the season. With no Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) on the floor, the Bucks' point guard attempted 15 shots, the most in a game for Rollins since October 30. Even better for fantasy managers is that the increased shot usage did not negatively impact Rollins' efficiency, as he shot 66.7 percent from the field and committed just two turnovers. He's still rostered in 49 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is too low given Rollins' role and his production. |

Kyle Kuzma MIL starts Rollins, Green, Trent, Kuzma, Turner
Wed, Nov 12, 2025, 12:34 PM
Sam Perley
Ryan Rollins, AJ Green, Gary Trent Jr., Kyle Kuzma and Myles Turner will start Wednesday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is out for Wednesday's game, opening up a massive void in the Bucks' starting lineup. Kuzma will step into the role, and this matchup could be one where he can provide additional value. Even on a 12-game night, it wouldn't hurt to roll the dice on Kuzma. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) out Wednesday
Wed, Nov 12, 2025, 7:33 AM
Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Giannis is still dealing with left knee patellar tendinopathy and will miss Wednesday's game against the Hornets. The 30-year-old power forward had appeared in 10 of the first 11 Bucks games and was averaging 33.4 points, 11.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists. Ryan Rollins, Bobby Portis and Kyle Kuzma are the most likely to benefit from Giannis' absence with Kuzma likely replacing him in the starting lineup. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis (knee) questionable Wednesday vs. CHA
Tue, Nov 11, 2025, 11:01 AM
Milwaukee Bucks
Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Hornets.
Analysis: Due to a lingering case of left knee patellar tendinopathy, Antetokounmpo is back on the Bucks' injury report. While Wednesday's game is not part of a back-to-back, this may be viewed as an opportunity to get the superstar forward additional rest. If Giannis doesn't play, Kyle Kuzma is the likely replacement in the starting lineup. He hasn't been a great fantasy option this season, but the chance to start without Giannis raises Kuzma's ceiling. |

Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma has 26 points in win over Mavericks
Mon, Nov 10, 2025, 5:32 PM
Kyle Kuzma had 26 points (10-of-17 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal and two three-pointers against the Mavericks on Monday.
Analysis: Kuzma came off the bench and played 32 minutes against the Mavericks on Monday. The 30-year-old small forward is seeing additional minutes with Taurean Prince (neck) out for the foreseeable future. Kuzma was the main support for Giannis Antetokounmpo offensively against the Mavericks and that's a role he could occupy more despite averaging 12.4 points per game so far. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis has 30/8/6 line in win over Mavericks
Mon, Nov 10, 2025, 5:22 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 30 points (11-of-18 FGs, 7-of-12 FTs), eight rebounds, six assists, one steal, three blocks and one three-pointer in the Bucks' 116-114 victory over the Mavericks on Monday.
Analysis: Antetokounmpo had at least 30 points for the fourth time in his last five games. He continues to dominate from a usage perspective as Kyle Kuzma was the only other Bucks player with at least 20 points. Giannis has been a top-10 fantasy player to start the year. The Bucks have three more games this week, starting with the Hornets on Wednesday. |

Taurean Prince Taurean Prince (neck) to miss significant time
Mon, Nov 10, 2025, 7:48 AM
Shams Charania
ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Taurean Prince has a herniated disc in his neck and is expected to miss a significant period of time.
Analysis: Prince's extended absence is a big blow to Milwaukee's offense, as the sharpshooting forward is knocking down 42.9% of his shots from beyond the arc this season. In his absence, expect Kyle Kuzma and Bobby Portis to see increased run. |

Myles Turner Myles Turner records three steals, three blocks
Sun, Nov 9, 2025, 12:45 PM
Myles Turner produced 13 points (6-of-11 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, three steals, three blocks and one three-pointer in Sunday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: While he's only recorded one 20-point game as a Buck, Turner's defensive production has been what fantasy managers hoped for. The 6-foot-11 center recorded three steals and three blocks on Sunday, the third time in four games that he's produced at least five âstocks.â Turner is providing fifth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats, and all that's needed to improve that would be a modest boost to his scoring. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins posts 19 points, five assists vs. HOU
Sun, Nov 9, 2025, 12:45 PM
Ryan Rollins finished Sunday's loss to the Rockets with 19 points (7-of-12 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, five assists, one steal and three three-pointers.
Analysis: Rollins continues to provide excellent value as the Bucks' starting point guard. He's scored in double figures in nine straight games and has offered third-round per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats since moving into the starting lineup on October 24. Rollins is rostered in just 47 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is too low, considering the production and Kevin Porter Jr.'s continued absence with a knee injury. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis Antetokounmpo scores game-high 36 points
Sun, Nov 9, 2025, 12:44 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo accumulated 36 points (14-of-25 FGs, 8-of-13 FTs), eight rebounds, three assists and one block in Sunday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: Giannis didn't record any defensive stats on Sunday, the first time he's done that since the Bucks' opener, but the offensive production remained elite. He's scored at least 31 points in seven of the nine games he's appeared in and is providing top-15 per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats. Despite shooting just 63.5 percent from the foul line, Antetokounmpo's field-goal percentage has increased by three points compared to last season. Also, his rebounding average has increased while the turnovers have decreased. The Bucks play four games during Week 4, starting with the Mavericks on Monday. |
