Bucks beat Magic 114-109 to return to the NBA Cup semifinals in Las Vegas

Sets season high in scoring in win Trent recorded 20 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 118-113 win over Brooklyn.

Impact Trent provided Milwaukee with a nice lift off the bench Sunday, connecting on a trio of threes while ending as one of three Bucks players with 20 or more points. Trent set a new season high in scoring, his first 20-point performance of the year. Trent has connected on at least three threes in four straight outings and in nine contests this season.

Scores 11 points off bench Trent ended with 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-9 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 119-104 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Trent seems to have adjusted well to a bench role in Doc Rivers' rotation, and the sharpshooter has responded by draining multiple threes in eight of his last 10 games. Trent is shooting an elite 50 percent from three, as well as averaging 10.9 points per game, in that span, so he remains a valuable fantasy alternative, particularly in category-based leagues.

Bounces back in Tuesday's win Trent ended with 16 points (6-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 27 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 128-107 win over Detroit.

Impact The 25-year-old wing had scored just four total points over the prior two games while going 0-for-5 on three-point attempts, but Trent shook off the mini-slump Tuesday. Recent stumble aside, he's looked far more comfortable on the second unit -- over his last nine contests coming off the bench, Trent is averaging 10.9 points, 2.8 boards, 2.8 threes, 1.3 steals and 1.2 assists in 25.8 minutes while shooting 53.2 percent (25-for-47) from beyond the arc.

Quiet with two points Trent finished with two points (1-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt), two rebounds and three steals across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 106-103 victory over the Heat.

Impact Trent's streak of games with double-digit points ended at six Tuesday as the shooting guard posted a dud in the win over Miami. Trent's fantasy appeal comes mostly from his perimeter shooting, as he averaged 3.7 triples in his previous six contests.

Scores 18 points off bench Trent amassed 18 points (6-10 FG, 6-10 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 29 minutes during Friday's 129-117 victory over Indiana.

Impact Trent made all of his damage from three-point range, nailing six of his 10 attempts en route to scoring a season-high mark. Trent opened the season in a starting role, and although he was demoted to the bench due to a subpar start, he seems to be trending in the right direction. He's scored in double digits in five games in a row, a span in which he's averaging 12.4 points per game while making 56.3 percent of his threes.

Season-high 12 points in win Trent totaled 12 points (4-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt), one rebound and one steal across 24 minutes during Monday's 101-100 victory over the Rockets.

Impact Trent led the Bucks' bench in scoring with a season high in points. The 25-year-old has struggled in a new setting thus far, though he has scored in double digits and shot 4-for-8 from the field in each of his last three contests. Trent also added a season high in threes made, and he shot 3-for-3 from beyond the arc in the first half alone.

Available Tuesday Coach Doc Rivers said that Trent (back) is available to play in Tuesday's game against the Raptors, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Trent will return to game action after missing the Bucks' last two games due to back spasms. The 25-year-old was benched in favor of Andre Jackson before his two-game absence, and Trent will likely continue to come off the bench until he can earn his spot back after a disastrous start to the 2024-25 campaign. Through eight regular-season outings, the guard has averaged 7.3 points across 26.9 minutes per game while shooting 29.5 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from deep.

Will likely play Tuesday Trent (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

Impact Trent was benched last week in favor of Andre Jackson and then missed two games due to a back injury. The veteran guard will likely have to earn coach Doc Rivers' trust back through solid play off the bench after a rough start to the campaign. Over eight appearances this season, Trent has shot 29.5 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from deep.

NOVEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Sunday Trent (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Trent will miss a second straight game due to a back injury. Andre Jackson has replaced Trent in the starting lineup, while AJ Green and Ryan Rollins have also recently seen increased roles for the struggling Bucks. Trent's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday versus Toronto.

NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Sunday Trent (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Celtics.

Impact Trent is in danger of missing his second straight contest Sunday due to back spasms. With Andre Jackson (hip) also questionable, AJ Green and Pat Connaughton could receive increased playing time.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Friday Trent (back) is out for Friday's game against the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Trent was limited to just eight minutes off the bench in Thursday's win over the Jazz, and while it's unclear if that was due to the back spasms he's dealing with, he's now set to miss his first game of the campaign. Andre Jackson will remain in the starting lineup with Trent sidelined.

NOVEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Friday Trent is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Knicks due to lower back spasms, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Trent is in danger of missing his first game of the season Friday while dealing with back spasms. The 25-year-old guard was moved to the bench in Milwaukee's most recent outing and logged a season-low eight minutes, indicating he could be headed for a majorly reduced role even when available.

Won't start Thursday Trent is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Jazz.

Impact Coach Doc Rivers will try out Andre Jackson in the starting lineup with Trent joining the second unit. The 25-year-old has struggled through seven regular-season outings with his new club, during which he has averaged 8.0 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 steals while shooting only 28.8 percent from the field across 29.6 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • HOOPSHYPE.COM

Moving to bench Trent isn't expected to start in Thursday's game versus the Jazz, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.

Impact Trent is expected to be replaced by Andre Jackson in the starting five Thursday. Trent started in each of Milwaukee's first seven outings but has struggled mightily. Over that span, the 25-year-old guard is shooting just 28.8 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from three.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Held to four points Trent logged four points (1-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes during Monday's 116-114 loss to Cleveland.

Impact This was a nightmare showing for Trent as the Bucks dropped to 1-6 on the season. To make matters worse, Trent was unable to take advantage of any extra touches vacated by Giannis Antetokounmpo (thigh). In seven appearances for his new team, Trent is shooting a mere 28.8 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Available to face Chicago Trent (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Bulls, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.

Impact Trent landed on the injury report due to a right calf contusion, but the injury ended up being minor, so the sharpshooter will remain in the Bucks' starting backcourt alongside Damian Lillard. Trent posted 11 points and shot 2-for-5 from three-point range in the season-opening win over the 76ers on Wednesday.

OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Friday Trent is questionable for Friday's game versus the Bulls due to a right calf strain.

Impact Trent was a late addition to the injury report, and his status is something to monitor ahead of Friday's tipoff at 8:00 p.m. ET. If the 25-year-old is limited, or unable to play, Delon Wright and Pat Connaughton are both candidates to receive more minutes.

OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 12 points Thursday Trent posted 12 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and an assist across 22 minutes in Thursday's 109-84 preseason loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Trent was the only regular starter who suited up for the Bucks in this game. While he led the team in scoring, Milwaukee's overall performance was subpar -- though that can be expected, especially when seeing the lineup the coaching staff decided to start. Trent will open the 2024-25 season as the Bucks' starting shooting guard and provide another much-needed three-point threat alongside Damian Lillard.
