BAD NEWS: Khris Middleton is out for…

The Milwaukee Bucks will be doing it all without one of their top three players on that squad, but they will manage. However, it will not be the same for them as they would love to have him back. Injuries have been piling up for the veteran player and now it is all about recovery and healing.

During the playoffs, Middleton was forced out of it due to a Grade 2 MCL sprain. That sprain came in the first round of the playoffs. Now he is dealing with something else, recovering from surgery.

Khris Middleton was having wrist issues and opted for surgery, and that route is going to cost him multiple weeks of the upcoming regular season. Due to off-season wrist surgery, we are looking at him missing about the first few weeks due to this injury/recovery.

That means the Bucks will continue to adapt without him and try to win as many games as possible, which shouldn’t be hard with all the talent they have, for when he returns and (hopefully) balls out.

Besides Middleton, Milwaukee does not have any other big players missing time from the franchise.

Bucks Potentially Trading Brook Lopez This Summer

According to The Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor, the Milwaukee Bucks may be looking to trade Brook Lopez for several reasons this offseason.

With Doc Rivers taking over, Milwaukee could switch schemes and want to play a more versatile defense style. This would most definitely mean an exit for the former champion, but it’s not the only reason. Age and contract status is another concern for management.

The 36-year-old is in the final year of his contract, which sees him making $23 million.

Darvin Ham Has Been Hired By The Bucks

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Milwaukee Bucks have hired former Los Angeles Lakers head coach Darvin Ham to a contract.

Ham will be Doc Rivers’s top assistant coach, as this is a reunion between the team and the 50-year-old coach.

When Mike Budenholzer was Milwaukee’s head coach, Ham was employed on his coaching staff. He was there from 2018 to 2021, the year he was hired by Rob Pelinka to coach the Lakers.

Damian Lillard IN, Giannis Antetokounmpo OUT For Game 6

According to Chris Haynes, Damian Lillard has been cleared to play in a series-deciding Game 6 against the Pacers. The Bucks missed him during their win in Game 5, but will be more than happy to have him back.

However, according to Adrian Wojnarowski, Giannis Antetokounmpo has been ruled out for Thursday’s game. Both players attempted to make a comeback for this series, but only Lillard got cleared.

Antetokounmpo is still dealing with his calf injury, and no real timeline has been established for him. In terms of Lillard’s Achilles, how healthy he is unknown, it’s just a matter of needing to be involved in tonight’s life-or-death game.

The Pacers have the opportunity to close out the series at home. Tune in at 6:30 PM EST time to watch on TNT.
