Kyle Kuzma News, Rumors, Updates - Milwaukee Bucks

Scores season-high 27 points Kuzma registered 27 points (10-17 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, a steal and two blocks across 31 minutes in Sunday's 117-97 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Kuzma delivered an impressive scoring performance, connecting on six three-pointers while adding three combined defensive stats. This 27-point output was not only Kuzma's best scoring output of the season, but it also represented the first time he scored at least 20 points in the current campaign. Kuzma is averaging just 12.4 points per game over his last five appearances, so this was likely a one-game outlier rather than a sign of what's to come.

Struggles against Minnesota Kuzma ended with two points (1-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Monday's 112-100 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Kuzma endured another frustrating offensive outing, missing all four of his three-point attempts while finishing with a team-worst minus-22 rating. He attempted just six shots despite starting, while Milwaukee received more productive performances from Jaime Jaquez and its reserves. Kuzma's limited playing time and inconsistent scoring make him difficult to trust in standard fantasy formats.

Posts double-double Saturday Kuzma posted 14 points (6-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes in Saturday's 127-116 loss to the 76ers.

Impact Kuzma delivered his strongest contribution on the glass, collecting 12 rebounds while playing a team-high 35 minutes. However, his scoring remained modest, and he failed to register a steal or block. His substantial workload offers some fantasy stability, but with Milwaukee featuring several offensive options, Kuzma may need consistent rebounding to compensate for the ups and downs in his scoring production. He's yet to reach the 15-point mark despite playing at least 27 minutes in every game.

Shooting woes in loss Kuzma totaled five points (2-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists and three steals in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 128-116 loss to Washington.

Impact Kuzma endured a difficult shooting night against his former team, converting just two of nine attempts while committing three turnovers. His three steals helped offset the offensive struggles, but he was outscored by several Milwaukee reserves, including Kasparas Jakucionis and Brayden Burries. Kuzma remains part of the Bucks' starting lineup, though his scoring consistency and offensive role will be worth monitoring.

Cleared to play Friday Kuzma (rest) will play in Friday's preseason game against Indiana.

Impact Kuzma was one of multiple Bucks regulars who were held out of Wednesday's loss to Chicago, though he's set to return to action in Milwaukee's preseason finale. The veteran forward started 43 of his 69 regular-season appearances last season, averaging 13.0 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 26.2 minutes per contest. He figures to continue seeing meaningful playing time in 2026-27.

Serviceable effort Sunday Kuzma ended with 12 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals in 22 minutes during Sunday's 105-90 preseason loss to Charlotte.

Impact Kuzma was back in the starting lineup Sunday, ending with arguably his best performance of the preseason. For better or worse, it appears as though Kuzma could be a starting option for the Bucks come opening night. Having lost Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis during the offseason, Milwaukee will be hoping Kuzma can rediscover his form from a couple of seasons ago. For those in fantasy, he profiles as nothing more than a last-round flyer, based largely on the fact that he could play close to 30 minutes per game.

Not starting Wednesday Kuzma won't start Wednesday's preseason game against the Thunder.

Impact The Bucks will try out their double-big lineup Wednesday, with Kel'el Ware entering the starting five in Kuzma's place. The veteran forward logged 20 minutes in Monday's preseason-opening loss to the Timberwolves, posting one point (0-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist.

Goes scoreless from field Monday Kuzma managed one point (0-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 20 minutes in Monday's 116-97 preseason loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Kuzma endured a forgettable shooting performance in Milwaukee's preseason opener, missing all six of his field-goal attempts and scoring his only point at the charity stripe. He did grab five rebounds and notably finished without a turnover, but there weren't many positives offensively. Kuzma remains positioned for a significant frontcourt role after drawing the start Monday, and there's little reason to read much into one poor shooting night during the opening game of the preseason.
