Cole Anthony Cole Anthony (ankle) probable vs. New Orleans
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 7:35 AM
NBA Injury Report
Cole Anthony (ankle) is probable to play against the Pelicans on Wednesday.
Analysis: Anthony is expected to suit up despite the left ankle sprain. He has played a small role off the bench recently, but with Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) back, that may not continue. Anthony hasn't been productive in those minutes either, so managers shouldn't pay too much attention to his status. |

Bobby Portis Bobby Portis (hip) remains out vs. New Orleans
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 7:32 AM
NBA Injury Report
Bobby Portis (hip) has been ruled out against the Pelicans on Wednesday.
Analysis: This will be a second consecutive absence for Portis, which led to Amir Coffey sliding into the starting lineup. Coffey didn't make much of a contribution in the box score, but Kyle Kuzma had a fantastic performance and could provide an encore against New Orleans. |

Myles Turner Myles Turner (ankle) probable vs. New Orleans
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 7:30 AM
NBA Injury Report
Myles Turner (ankle) is probable to play against the Pelicans on Wednesday.
Analysis: Turner is managing a left ankle sprain, but that isn't expected to alter his availability against New Orleans. He'll occupy his typical role in the starting lineup and could see extra minutes with Bobby Portis (hip) sidelined. |

Kevin Porter Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) off injury report
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 7:27 AM
NBA Injury Report
Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) is not on the injury report against the Pelicans on Wednesday.
Analysis: Bucks coach Doc Rivers said on Tuesday that KPJ was close to returning, and now that he's off the injury report, he will make his return against New Orleans. Prior to this six-game absence, KPJ spent one game coming off the bench and could remain in that limited role in his return. Cole Anthony will lose minutes with Porter back. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins has 21/7/10 line in win over Bulls
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 4:59 PM
Ryan Rollins had 21 points (8-of-21 FGs), seven rebounds, 10 assists and five three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: Rollins continues to average career-highs across the board in what has turned into a breakout season. The 23-year-old point guard was three rebounds shy of a triple-double in Tuesday's win over the Bulls. Rollins has provided fourth-round per game value this season. The Bucks play the Pelicans Wednesday at home on the second night of a back-to-back. |

Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma has 31/10/6 line in win over Bulls
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 4:53 PM
Kyle Kuzma had 31 points (12-of-22 FGs, 4-of-7 FTs), 10 rebounds, six assists, one steal and three three-pointers in the Bucks' 131-115 victory over the Bulls on Tuesday.
Analysis: Without Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) and Bobby Portis (hip), the Bucks were relying on Kuzma and he totally delivered in the win over the Bulls on Tuesday. The 30-year-old power forward had 31 points, 10 rebounds and six assists and was +18 in 31 minutes in the 16-point victory. Kuzma could be one of the main beneficiaries of fantasy value for the rest of the season, depending on what the Bucks do before the trade deadline. |

Amir Coffey MIL starts Rollins, Green, Kuzma, Coffey, Turner
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 1:48 PM
NBA Lineups
Ryan Rollins, AJ Green, Kyle Kuzma, Amir Coffey and Myles Turner will start Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: The Bucks won't have Bobby Portis (hip) for Tuesday's game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup since he was filling in for Giannis Antetokounmpo. Coffey, who has played four minutes or less in three of his last four appearances, will move into the starting lineup. He isn't worth the risk in most fantasy leagues. |

Bobby Portis Bobby Portis (hip) downgraded to out vs. Chicago
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 12:49 PM
Jackson Gross
Bobby Portis (hip) is out for Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: Portis will not play due to a right hip contusion, which makes Kyle Kuzma's role that much more important for the Bucks. There should also be more minutes available to Pete Nance and Andre Jackson Jr., but neither player is worth streaming. |
|
Kevin Porter Doc: Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) close to returning
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 12:29 PM
Jackson Gross
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers said on Tuesday that Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique) is closing in on a return to action.
Analysis: Tuesday's game against the Bulls will be the sixth Porter has missed due to a strained oblique. However, a return to action isn't far away, with Rivers saying that KPJ could be back either Wednesday or Friday. His return would provide much-needed help on the perimeter for the Bucks, who are also without Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf). Cole Anthony has entered the rotation, but his production has not been good enough to merit being streamed in fantasy leagues. |

Bobby Portis Bobby Portis (hip) questionable Tuesday vs. CHI
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 6:53 AM
NBA Injury Report
Bobby Portis (hip) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Bulls.
Analysis: Portis is dealing with a right hip contusion, and he's in danger of sitting out against the Bucks' Central Division rival after his late addition to the injury report. If Portis is sidelined, Kyle Kuzma could take on an even larger role, and Amir Coffey could earn some additional run off the bench. |

Gary Harris Gary Harris (hamstring) out Tuesday vs. CHI
Mon, Feb 2, 2026, 9:55 AM
NBA Injury Report
Gary Harris (hamstring) is out for Tuesday's matchup with the Bulls.
Analysis: Harris' absence isn't particularly notable for fantasy hoops managers. Gary Trent Jr. could see a few additional minutes, but the extra playing time doesn't give GTJ enough of a boost to warrant an add off the waiver wire. |

Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma scores 16 points in loss to Boston
Sun, Feb 1, 2026, 12:00 PM
Kyle Kuzma accounted for 16 points (5-of-13 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Celtics.
Analysis: Kuzma joined Ryan Rollins as the only Bucks in double figures on Sunday. He hasn't been the most reliable fantasy option for most of his career, but the current circumstances could make Kuzma worth the risk in points leagues. Rostered in 25 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he's been more productive with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Porter Jr. out due to injury. The Bucks play three games in Week 16, starting with the Bulls on Tuesday. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins scores team-high 25 points vs. Boston
Sun, Feb 1, 2026, 12:00 PM
Ryan Rollins finished Sunday's loss to the Celtics with 25 points (10-of-16 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, seven assists, one steal and three three-pointers.
Analysis: Rollins was essentially the only Bucks player able to establish anything offensively in Boston. The Bucks' guard had an efficient afternoon at the office, and the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Porter Jr. raises his ceiling considerably. While it remains to be seen what Milwaukee does before the trade deadline, fantasy managers should feel secure in rostering Rollins. |

Gary Harris Gary Harris (hamstring) downgraded to out vs. BOS
Sun, Feb 1, 2026, 8:56 AM
NBA Injury Report
Gary Harris (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Analysis: Harris' absence will not affect fantasy basketball, but it does free up additional minutes for Gary Trent Jr. Fantasy managers can afford to leave Trent on the waiver wire. |

Gary Harris Gary Harris (hamstring) downgraded to doubtful
Sun, Feb 1, 2026, 8:18 AM
NBA Injury Report
Gary Harris (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Analysis: Initially probable for Sunday's game, Harris is now doubtful. His availability does not affect fantasy basketball, but there may be more minutes available to Gary Trent Jr. |

Gary Harris Gary Harris (hamstring) probable vs. Boston
Sat, Jan 31, 2026, 9:28 AM
NBA Injury Report
Gary Harris (hamstring) is probable for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Analysis: Harris sat out Thursday's loss to the Wizards with a sore left hamstring. While his availability does not affect fantasy basketball, Harris's not playing on Thursday led to Gary Trent Jr. picking up additional minutes. |

Ryan Rollins Ryan Rollins (calf) tallies 17 points, eight dimes
Thu, Jan 29, 2026, 3:48 PM
Ryan Rollins (calf) finished Thursday's loss to the Wizards with 17 points (7-of-13 FGs), three rebounds, eight assists, three steals and three three-pointers.
Analysis: Quiet for the first half of Thursday's game, Rollins shot 6-of-10 from the field after halftime and helped Milwaukee make the game competitive down the stretch. Unfortunately for the Bucks, he had to leave with just over two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter due to a right calf cramp and did not return. With Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Porter Jr. out due to injury, Rollins has a higher fantasy ceiling and is worth targeting in 10-team leagues. |

Kyle Kuzma Kyle Kuzma posts 19 points, nine rebounds vs. WAS
Thu, Jan 29, 2026, 3:48 PM
Kyle Kuzma accounted for 19 points (8-of-18 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), nine rebounds and six assists in Thursday's loss to the Wizards.
Analysis: Kuzma didn't let being booed every time he touched the ball get him off his game, as he had one of his better performances of the season. In the two games the Bucks have played since losing Giannis Antetokounmpo to a calf strain, Kuzma has totaled 36 points, 17 rebounds and 14 assists while shooting 14-of-30 from the field. While he hasn't been the most reliable fantasy option, current circumstances make Kuzma worth the risk in some 12-team leagues. |

Myles Turner Myles Turner drops 21/14/1 line with six blocks
Thu, Jan 29, 2026, 3:47 PM
Myles Turner tallied 21 points (8-of-16 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), 14 rebounds, one assist, six blocks and two three-pointers in Thursday's loss to the Wizards.
Analysis: Unfortunately for the Bucks, it appears that Giannis Antetokounmpo going down with a calf strain was what fully unlocked Turner. After going off for 31 points in Tuesday's loss to the 76ers, he finished Thursday's defeat with his best all-around line of the season. Turner's double-double was his third of the season; the rebound tally was a season-high, and he matched his previous high in blocks. Over the past two weeks, Turner has been a top-5 player in eight-cat formats. |

Bobby Portis Bobby Portis records 19/7/3 line vs. Washington
Thu, Jan 29, 2026, 3:46 PM
Bobby Portis finished Thursday's loss to the Wizards with 19 points (8-of-17 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and two three-pointers.
Analysis: A double-figure scorer in nine consecutive games, Portis' 19 points were the most in a game for him since he hit that number in a January 19 win over the Hawks. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) out for the foreseeable future, Portis will have every opportunity to do more offensively. However, his fantasy value over the past two weeks has not cracked the top-100 in eight-cat formats. While this may give some shallow-league managers pause, those competing in standard leagues should still look to add Portis if he's sitting on the waiver wire. |
