Not starting Saturday Green is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

Hits three triples in win Green totaled nine points (3-9 FG, 3-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 victory over Orlando.

Impact Green continues to play meaningful minutes off the bench for Milwaukee, having now connected on multiple three-pointers in eight straight games. He has been able to carve out a relatively consistent role, sliding ahead of players like Pat Connaughton and Gary Trent. As long as his shot if falling, he should continue to play a key role on a team looking to rebuild after a slow start to the season.

DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Retreating to bench Saturday Green is not in the Bucks' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Green was in the Bucks' starting five Friday due to Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) being sidelined, and the former finished with nine points, two assists and one rebound over 28 minutes. With Antetokounmpo back for Saturday's contest, Green will revert to his bench role.

Starting vs. Miami Green is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Heat.

Impact Despite coach Doc Rivers saying earlier in the day that Green is unlikely to play against Charlotte, he is now officially deemed probable. With Damian Lillard (concussion) and Ryan Rollins (shoulder) both out, Green will likely remain in Milwaukee's starting lineup.

NOVEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play against Charlotte Coach Doc Rivers said Thursday that Green is doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Hornets due to a left shoulder impingement, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Green has started in Milwaukee's last two contests but is expected to miss Saturday's game due to a shoulder injury.

Gets starting nod Tuesday Green will enter the starting five in Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

Impact Andre Jackson will retreat to the bench with Green starting for just the second time in his three-year career. The sharpshooter has been red-hot from beyond the arc this season, during which he has averaged 7.9 points while shooting 60.5 percent from distance. Green has carved out a significant role off the bench thus far, and he has yet to attempt a shot inside of three-point range through nine regular-season appearances.

NOVEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient from outside in defeat Green finished Sunday's 113-107 loss to the Celtics with 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-6 3Pt), three rebounds and three steals across 27 minutes.

Impact Green has carved out a significant role on the Bucks' bench due to his abilities as a three-point specialist, and he has shot 18-for-27 across the club's last four regular-season games. The sharpshooter tied Damian Lillard for the team high in steals, and Green also led Milwaukee in threes. The sharpshooter has seen an uptick in playing time during his last four outings, during which he has averaged 13.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 26.0 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impresses in loss Monday Green contributed 21 points (7-9 FG, 7-9 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Monday's 116-114 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact After receiving a DNP in Saturday's loss to Cleveland, Green exploded for the second-highest mark in points of his career Monday. The sharpshooter has struggled to carve out a consistent role with coach Doc Rivers giving Andre Jackson significant playing time off the bench. However, the second unit has struggled with production, especially from beyond the arc, and Green's performance from outside Monday bodes well for his role moving forward.

NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Available Sunday Green (toe) is available for Sunday's game against the Nets, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Green has been dealing with a sprained left toe, though he is expected to play Sunday. The sharpshooter played 11 minutes in Friday's loss to the Bulls, during which he scored nine points while shooting 3-for-4 from downtown.

Probable to face Brooklyn Green is probable for Sunday's game against the Nets due to a right toe sprain.

Impact It's unclear when Green picked up the injury, but the probable tag suggests he should be available Sunday. He's averaged just 7.5 minutes per game over his first two appearances this season, so he shouldn't play a big role in the rotation even if available.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Takes on increased role in Game 4 Green tallied eight points (3-7 FG, 2-6 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes off the bench Sunday in the Bucks' 126-113 loss to the Pacers in Game 4 of the series.

Impact After missing the final two games of the regular season with a left ankle sprain, Green was fully cleared ahead of the Bucks' first-round playoff matchup and has been included in the rotation in each of the first four contests of the series. He received his biggest workload yet Sunday, as the Bucks opened up more minutes in the backcourt for Green, Malik Beasley and Andre Jackson while Damian Lillard (Achilles) joined Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) in street clothes. Lillard's status for Tuesday's Game 5 has yet to be determined, so Green could be in store for another 20-plus-minute role if Lillard is sidelined once again.

Doesn't appear on injury report Green (ankle) is not in the official injury report for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Impact Green didn't play in Milwaukee's final two games of the regular season due to injury, but he seems to have recovered enough to feature in the series opener Sunday. Green is expected to see minutes off the bench, but he shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside in most formats.

APRIL 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for regular season Green (ankle), who has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Thunder, will remain sidelined for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Magic.

APRIL 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Friday Green (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Green sprained his left ankle during Wednesday's win over Orlando, and he'll be forced to miss at least one game due to the issue. Damian Lillard (groin) is doubtful for Friday's matchup, so Patrick Beverley, Andre Jackson and Malik Beasley could see additional playing time against Oklahoma City.

APRIL 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sprains ankle, won't return Green (left ankle sprain) has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against Orlando. He'll finish with two points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and a steal across 16 min...

Impact Green didn't play in the second half of Wednesday's game and it's now been revealed that he sustained a sprained ankle during the contest. The sharpshooter has been a key piece for Milwaukee off the bench during the second half of the season, so with a playoff spot clinched, the Bucks could be extra cautious with Green's injury moving forward. His next chance to play will come Friday at Oklahoma City.

APRIL 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not listed on injury report Green (illness) isn't listed on Milwaukee's injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Green was sidelined for Sunday's win over the Thunder due to an illness but returned to practice Monday and will suit up Tuesday. Over his last five appearances, Green has made 10 three-pointers but eight of those came in just two games.
