Giannis ‘gets a pass’ for frustrations with Bucks

Ryan Rollins

MIL Guard #13

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Ryan Rollins recorded 10 points (4-of-14 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, six assists and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Pistons.

Rollins had a rough night shooting the basketball, and he’s gone 10-of-27 from the field in the two full games the Bucks have played since losing Giannis Antetokounmpo to a strained calf. While the former MVP’s absence means increased usage for players like Rollins, it also means increased attention from opposing defenses. The Bucks will play twice in Week 8 and have four games in Weeks 8 and 9 for those competing in leagues that will combine the two weeks due to the NBA Cup.
Kyle Kuzma

MIL Forward #18

Kyle Kuzma accounted for 15 points (5-of-12 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Pistons.

With AJ Green (shoulder) joining Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) on the sidelines, Kuzma was tabbed to move into the starting lineup. While he wasn’t great, things could have been worse for those familiar with the forward’s recent fantasy history. Kuzma’s final stat line only lacked a block, and he shot just under 50 percent from the field. With Green likely missing multiple games, Kuzma will have some value in deep leagues despite the track record.
Kevin Porter

MIL Guard-Forward #7

Kevin Porter Jr. tallied 32 points (11-of-16 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), six rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block and seven three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Pistons.

No Giannis Antetokounmpo means there’s more room for Porter to spread his wings offensively, and the Bucks certainly need him to do it. He was highly productive against the Pistons, with the 32 points being a season-high. Not only did Porter record a complete line, but he was efficient, shooting well over 50 percent from the field and committing just one turnover. KPJ is rostered in 51 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and that number should increase after Saturday’s performance.
Kyle Kuzma

MIL Forward #18

Ryan Rollins, Kevin Porter Jr., Kyle Kuzma, Jericho Sims and Myles Turner will start Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Already without Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Bucks won’t have AJ Green for Saturday’s game, either. His absence means Kuzma moves into the starting lineup, raising his fantasy ceiling.
AJ Green

MIL Guard #20

AJ Green (shoulder) is out for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Green injured his left shoulder during Friday’s loss to the 76ers and will not play on Saturday. Kyle Kuzma started the second half in Green’s place and will likely move into the starting lineup. While not the most consistent player, Kuzma is worth rostering given the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo.
AJ Green

MIL Guard #20

AJ Green (shoulder) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Green injured his shoulder in Friday’s game against the 76ers and didn’t return. The 26-year-old shooting guard will be replaced in the lineup by Kyle Kuzma if he’s ruled out against the Pistons on Saturday.
Ryan Rollins

MIL Guard #13

Ryan Rollins totaled 16 points (6-of-13 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, seven assists, four steals and two three-pointers on Friday in the loss to the Sixers.

Rollins put together a nice two-way performance, despite the loss to Philadelphia on Friday. He was efficient from beyond the arc and was one of the Bucks’ more reliable playmakers as well. The fourth-year guard has remained productive with Kevin Porter Jr. back from injury — the two are co-existing nicely in the starting backcourt so far, which should be a relief for those fantasy managers who had their doubts.
Kevin Porter

MIL Guard-Forward #7

Kevin Porter Jr. tallied 20 points (5-of-13 FGs, 9-of-9 FTs), seven rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one three-pointer in the loss to the Sixers on Friday.

Porter Jr remained productive in his fourth game back from his early-season knee injury. While he didn’t score as well as the previous two outings, he utilized the charity stripe to make his way to 20 points for the third straight game, while tallying his most productive numbers as a rebounder and facilitator since returning. The sample size has been small this season for Porter, but he’s put up good fantasy numbers more times than he hasn’t. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) out of the lineup, Porter Jr. will have even more freedom to create on the offensive end.
Bobby Portis

MIL Forward #9

Bobby Portis notched 22 points (9-of-16 FGs), four rebounds, one steal and four three-pointers in the loss to the Sixers on Friday.

Portis was one of Milwaukee’s most productive players on Friday. In 23 minutes, he led the team in scoring and made three-pointers, and was one of five Bucks players to score in double figures. The veteran forward didn’t make many contributions elsewhere, however — he didn’t record an assist, had minimal impact on the glass, and finished with one stock on the defensive end. Portis has had one of his least productive seasons in quite some time, from a statistical standpoint, but with the Bucks down Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf), he should have opportunities to pick up his production.
AJ Green

MIL Guard #20

AJ Green (shoulder) will not return to Friday’s game against the 76ers.

Green was initially questionable to return, and now he has officially been ruled out. Kyle Kuzma started the second half in his place.
