Kevin Porter Kevin Porter Jr. has 25 points in win over NOP
Fri, Feb 20, 2026, 5:05 PM
Kevin Porter Jr. amassed 25 points (10-of-15 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), two rebounds, seven assists and two steals on Friday in the win over the Pelicans.
Analysis: Porter Jr. was one of three Milwaukee backcourt members to thrive against the Pelicans on Friday. He finished with at least 25 points, as did the other two Bucks guards, and he also led the team in assists. The veteran point guard has dished out at least seven assists in seven consecutive games, and could realistically extend his streak to eight against the Raptors on Sunday. He's produced some good numbers since returning from early-season injury. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins goes for 27 points, seven threes Fri.
Fri, Feb 20, 2026, 4:58 PM
Ryan Rollins amassed 27 points (10-of-15 FGs), two rebounds, six assists, four steals, two blocks and seven three-pointers in the win over the Pelicans on Friday.
Analysis: Rollins had tremendous production against the Pelicans, playing stellar basketball on both ends of the floor. On offense, he set a season-high in three-pointers en route to tying a team-high in points, but was also one of Milwaukee's best playmakers on the evening. Defensively, the six stocks he produced made his overall performance stand out even more from a fantasy perspective. He had a dominant two-way performance on Friday and will have a chance for another on Sunday against the Raptors. |

Cam Thomas Cam Thomas scores 27 off bench in win over Pels
Fri, Feb 20, 2026, 4:44 PM
Cam Thomas added 27 points (11-of-17 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), three rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer in the win over the Pelicans on Thursday.
Analysis: Thomas had another sensational scoring night off Milwaukee's bench, finishing in a tie with Ryan Rollins for the most points by a Bucks player on Friday. Thomas made some contributions from the free-throw line but mostly did his scoring from inside the arc. He was efficient in his 21 minutes of action and has now scored over 25 points twice since being traded to Milwaukee. His role with the team seems clear, which makes him an interesting player in fantasy leagues the rest of the season. |

Fri, Feb 20, 2026, 1:43 PM
NBA Lineups
Ryan Rollins, Kevin Porter Jr., Kyle Kuzma, Jericho Sims and AJ Green will start against the Pelicans on Friday.
Analysis: The Bucks welcome Rollins back to the rotation after a foot injury sidelined him for the Bucks' two final games before the All-Star break. His return will bolster Milwaukee's starting backcourt and provide the team with more scoring and playmaking from the opening tip, as they look to extend their win streak to three games. He's played consistently throughout the year and is posting averages of 16.9 points, 4.6 rebounds and 5.5 assists. |

Thu, Feb 19, 2026, 11:20 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ryan Rollins (foot) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis: After missing Milwaukee's final two games before the All-Star break with plantar fasciitis in his right foot, Rollins is off the injury report. Rollins' return may push Ousmane Dieng to the bench, but he's played well enough to continue to receive solid rotation minutes, even with a potential demotion. |

Myles Turner Myles Turner (calf) out Friday vs. Pelicans
Thu, Feb 19, 2026, 11:17 AM
Myles Turner (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis: Turner is still dealing with the same calf injury that cost him a game before the All-Star break. The 29-year-old center is set to miss Friday's game against the Pelicans. Ousmane Dieng should fill in for Turner and is worth streaming given his recent play. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis: âI feel good, I feel 100 percent'
Sat, Feb 14, 2026, 10:05 AM
Milwaukee Bucks
Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) said Saturday that he currently feels â100 percentâ and that he could play a game today.
Analysis: Giannis has been sidelined since straining his right calf for the second time this season during a January 23 loss to the Nuggets. At the time, he set a four-to-six-week timeline, and the former league MVP is on the right path. âI feel like the break doesn't help, because now I gotta get on the court, I gotta play some 1-on-1, 3-on-3, 5 vs. 5,â Antetokounmpo said Saturday. âPlayers are on vacation right now, so it's kinda hard for me to do that. âSo once I check all those boxes, I'm ready to go. I feel like I can play a game today.â Giannis has made it clear he will play again this season. And the Bucks' wins over Orlando and Oklahoma City heading into the All-Star break likely sparked optimism about the team's chances of earning a playoff berth once they get their star forward back. |

Bobby Portis Bobby Portis has double-double in win vs. Thunder
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 4:01 PM
Bobby Portis had 15 points (6-of-11 FGs), 12 rebounds, three assists, four steals and three three-pointers in Thursday's win over the Thunder.
Analysis: Portis showed again Thursday why he leads all active bench players in double-doubles with 15 points and 12 rebounds in the win over the Thunder. The 31-year-old small forward seems to be over his hip injury. With the All-Star break approaching, Portis and the Bucks are off until Friday, February 20 against the Pelicans. |

Ousmane Dieng Ousmane Dieng has monster night in win over OKC
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 3:54 PM
Ousmane Dieng had 19 points (7-of-12 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), 11 rebounds, six assists, one steal, four blocks and three three-pointers in the Bucks' 110-93 victory over the Thunder on Thursday.
Analysis: Dieng has struggled to produce or see minutes consistently this season, but has flashed a high-ceiling in the last two games. The 22-year-old small forward followed up a 17-point performance in 23 minutes in the win against the Magic on Wednesday with a full stat line in the win over the Thunder on Thursday. Dieng had 19 points and was just four assists shy of a triple-double while also contributing on the defensive end with a steal and four blocks. He also made three three-pointers. The Bucks deciding to keep giving him more minutes could lead to more games like this in the future. |

Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 1:17 PM
Bucks will start Kevin Porter Jr., AJ Green, Ousmane Dieng, Kyle Kuzma and Jericho Sims against the Thunder on Thursday.

Myles Turner Myles Turner (calf) late scratch Thursday vs. OKC
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 1:04 PM
Myles Turner (calf) is out for Thursday's game against the Thunder.
Analysis: Turner wasn't on the initial injury report, but was a late scratch with right calf soreness. Ousmane Dieng had 17 points in 23 minutes in Wednesday's win over the Magic and could be in for even more minutes with Turner out Thursday against the Thunder, Dieng's former team. |
|
Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma (foot) available Thursday vs. Thunder
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 12:23 PM
Kyle Kuzma (foot) is available for Thursday's game against the Thunder.
Analysis: Kuzma returned from a calf injury earlier this week, only to find himself back on the injury report with a foot injury. Initially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder, Kuzma was ruled in. He had 15 points, seven rebounds and two assists in Wednesday's win over the Magic. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins (foot) out Thursday vs. Thunder
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 12:18 PM
Ryan Rollins (foot) is out for Thursday's game against the Thunder.
Analysis: Rollins is set to miss his second consecutive game with right foot plantar fasciitis. With the 23-year-old guard out Wednesday against the Magic, Cam Thomas stepped up and dropped 34 points in the victory. Thomas could be in for another big performance with Rollins out, though it's a more difficult matchup as the Thunder lead the league in defensive efficiency. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins (foot) questionable Thursday vs. OKC
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 8:28 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ryan Rollins (foot) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Thunder.
Analysis: Rollins sat out Wednesday's matchup with Orlando, but he's got a chance to return for the second leg of Milwaukee's back-to-back set. If Rollins ultimately sits out, Cam Thomas could be in for another big performance. Thomas dropped 34 points against the Magic and hit a key triple late in the game to seal the victory. |

Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma (foot) questionable Thursday vs. OKC
Thu, Feb 12, 2026, 8:22 AM
NBA Injury Report
Kyle Kuzma (foot) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Thunder.
Analysis: Kuz is back on the injury report, but this time, it's for a foot issue. If he's unable to take the court for the Bucks' final game before the All-Star break, Ousmane Dieng should see a bump in playing time. |

Kevin Porter Kevin Porter Jr. tallies triple-double vs. Orlando
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 4:37 PM
Kevin Porter Jr. recorded a triple-double on Wednesday with 18 points (5-of-14 FGs), 10 rebounds, 11 assists, two blocks and one three-pointer against the Magic.
Analysis: KPJ's play dwindled in January, but his first four games back after missing time with an oblique injury have been excellent. He has averaged 21.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 8.8 assists and 2.3 steals per game, which has helped the shorthanded Bucks remain competitive. As long as Giannis Antetokounmpo remains out, KPJ should be productive as a high-usage player, and he was able to record his second triple-double of the season in this game. |

Cam Thomas Cam Thomas drops 34 points vs. Orlando
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 4:33 PM
Cam Thomas led the Bucks with 34 points (12-of-20 FGs), four rebounds, two assists and four three-pointers in a 116-108 win over the Magic on Wednesday.
Analysis: Thomas only played 13 minutes against Orlando on Monday, but he took on a larger role in the rematch and was far more productive. His role dwindled over the final weeks of his Nets' tenure, but in his second game with Milwaukee, he had his highest-scoring game since October. If Thomas is able to continue to play this well after the All-Star break, he may be able to secure a long-term deal this summer and be a strong option for fantasy managers down the stretch. |

Ousmane Dieng Ousmane Dieng knocks down career-high five triples
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 4:28 PM
Ousmane Dieng provided a boost off the bench with 17 points (6-of-10 FGs), three rebounds and five three-pointers against the Magic on Wednesday.
Analysis: Dieng's first game with the Bucks was just a five-minute in a blowout loss, and he wasn't able to do much. However, his role expanded in his second game with the team, and he set a new career high for three-pointers in a game. He's still only 22 years old, and he holds plenty of upside. He could end up playing a larger role for the Bucks over the final two months of the season, which could lead to more productive outings like this one. |

Jericho Sims Jericho Sims starts, scores career-high 17 points
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 4:22 PM
Jericho Sims started on Wednesday and finished with 17 points (6-of-6 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), 11 rebounds and two assists against the Magic.
Analysis: Sims was part of a bigger starting unit for the Bucks with Ryan Rollins (foot) sidelined, and that strategy worked out well for the Bucks. He recorded a double-double and didn't miss a shot on his way to setting a new career high for scoring. It was also enough for the Bucks to get a win. They play again in Oklahoma City on Thursday, and if Rollins remains out, Sims should be in line for another start. |

Jericho Sims KPJ, Green, Kuzma, Sims, Turner starting vs. Magic
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 12:39 PM
Magic PR
Kevin Porter Jr., AJ Green, Kyle Kuzma, Jericho Sims and Myles Turner will start against the Magic on Wednesday.
Analysis: With Ryan Rollins (foot) sidelined, Bucks coach Doc Rivers will turn to a bigger starting unit. Sims hauled in 15 rebounds in his most recent start and should be able to grab plenty of boards in this game, though he may not contribute much else. |
