May not play rest of season Bucks head coach Doc Rivers told reporters Saturday that he would "be surprised" if Porter (knee) plays again this season, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Porter -- who was already ruled out for Saturday's game against the Spurs -- has missed nine of the Bucks' last 12 games due to a lingering right knee injury, and it appears the issue is severe enough for the veteran guard to sit for the rest of the 2025-26 regular season. If that is the case, then Porter will end the regular season averaging 17.4 points, 7.4 assists, 5.2 rebounds, 1.2 threes and 2.2 steals over 33.2 minutes per game, with his assists and steals numbers both career highs. Ryan Rollins, AJ Green and Gary Trent will operate in expanded roles in Porter's absence.

Impact Porter made his presence felt on both ends of the court Tuesday, notching his first double-double since Feb. 27 and his best scoring output since Feb. 24. The two blocks were also his best output since the All-Star break, though Porter isn't known for his defensive prowess. The sixth-year veteran, who should be in line for more minutes and a bigger role offensively due to the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), is averaging 17.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game since the break.

Available for Saturday Porter (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Hawks, per Eric Nehm of The Athletic.

Impact Porter is officially cleared to play in the first leg of the Bucks' back-to-back set after dealing with right knee synovitis. He is expected to handle a heavy workload this afternoon with Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) ruled out. However, given Porter's recent four-game absence and the quick turnaround for Sunday's home game against the Pacers, Porter is a strong candidate to sit out the second leg of the back-to-back for injury management.
