Productive in starting role Porter amassed 20 points (8-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Sunday's 111-107 win over the Pelicans.

Impact Porter was one of several Milwaukee players who embraced a bigger role on offense due to the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder), and he build off the 24-point output he had coming off the bench in the first leg of this back-to-back set against Miami on Saturday. Porter's fantasy relevancy could experience an uptick if he moves to the starting lineup in the final games of the regular season, but he's been productive across the board of late. He's tallied 20 or more points in three of his last five outings, averaging 17.8 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game in that span.

Sniffs triple-double Porter notched 24 points (8-16 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 12 rebounds and eight assists over 40 minutes during Saturday's 121-115 overtime win over the Heat.

Impact Ryan Rollins got the start Saturday but was limited to 14 minutes, meaning Porter saw most of the backcourt minutes, and he took full advantage of the opportunity to deliver one of his best outings of the season. Aside from grabbing a season-high mark in rebounds, Porter also surpassed the 20-point plateau for the fourth time this season and finished just two dimes away from a triple-double. It wouldn't be surprising if Porter moves to the starting unit against the Pelicans on Sunday in the second leg of this back-to-back set.

Strikes for season-high 28 Porter provided 28 points (8-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 23 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 145-124 loss to the Hawks.

Impact The 24-year-old guard set a new season scoring high in the efficient performance. Porter has taken on a larger role in the Bucks backcourt while Damian Lillard (calf) has been out of action, playing at least 22 minutes in four of the last five games and averaging 13.0 points, 4.8 assists, 4.0 boards, 1.2 threes and 0.8 steals in 23.2 minutes a contest over that stretch. Lillard lacks a timeline for his return as he deals with a blood clot, but Porter hasn't yet shown he can provide consistent production, making him a better option as an upside dart throw in large DFS tournaments.

Solid stat line in starting role Porter recorded 12 points (5-15 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and eight assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 127-117 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Porter moved to the starting lineup due to the absence of Damian Lillard (calf), who's out indefinitely, meaning he might remain in the first unit for the time being. Porter has scored in double digits in five of his last eight contests, and he might experience an uptick in his usage rate if he stays in a starting role going forward.

Set to start against Denver Porter will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Ryan Blackburn of MileHighSports.com reports.

Produces 18 points in win Porter contributed 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds and six assists across 27 minutes during Saturday's 114-108 victory over Sacramento.

Impact Porter gave the backcourt some much-needed production with Damian Lillard (calf) sidelined. The Bucks went with youth and placed Ryan Rollins in Lillard's position, but he soon gave way to Porter, who ended with 27 minutes. If Lillard's calf remains an issue, Porter should be in line for an expanded role.

Scores in double figures Porter finished Sunday's 121-105 loss to Oklahoma City with 11 points (3-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 19 minutes.

Impact Porter has been highly productive in limited minutes off the bench for Milwaukee. Over his last eight outings, Porter has produced 12.1 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.6 three-pointers in just 17.8 minutes per contest. He could be very valuable as a streamer down the stretch if the Bucks dial back their starters to keep them fresh for the playoffs.
