Colson

Colson signed a two-way contract with the Bucks last season. He appeared in eight games and averaged 4.9 points and 3.8 rebounds in 12.3 minutes.

The Bucks needed to do this to make room for Kyle Korver, but Colson should be able to snag a training camp deal somewhere. He’s irrelevant in fantasy hoops, though.

He was close to a free space in DFS after showing off he can go off in his two starts with the Bucks late in the season. Colson should continue to see heavy minutes in Vegas, but the Bucks still have enough depth to keep him out of the rotation.

Milwaukee deployed an eight-man rotation and that included just 17 minutes for Khris Middleton and 24 minutes for Ersan Ilyasova. It was a goldmine for end-of-rotation players, in other words, and Colson made the most of his opportunity. Congratulations if you happened to deploy him tonight.

Colson became the first Buck to record a game of 15/15 in their first NBA start that came with the team. That even includes some guy named Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who went for 29/12 in his first NBA start. Colson saw the second most minutes in this OT loss with four of the team’s usual starters and a handful of other rotation players out. With at least two of those starters set to return for Monday’s game against the Nets, this appears to be just a one-game thing for Colson. Remember his name for the next time the Bucks rest their starters, though.

Frazier is a late addition to the starting lineup with Eric Bledsoe surprisingly absent. It seems like the Bucks are just throwing in the towel with Khris Middleton (groin) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) out. Frazier is worth a look as a DFS punt play and a desperation stream for those in need of assists.

He’s joined by Tim Frazier, Sterling Brown, D.J. Wilson and Brook Lopez in the starting unit. The Bucks are without many of their regular rotation players, which will give Colson extended playing time for the first time in his career.

The two-way deal ensure that he’ll spend most of his time in the G-League, so Colson is safe to ignore in all settings.
