Nearly perfect from field Kuzma finished with 16 points (7-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 131-113 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Kuzma returned to the rotation Wednesday after being a DNP-CD in the loss to the Celtics on Monday, and this outing showed head coach Doc Rivers why he needs to continue playing even if it's in a limited capacity off the bench. Kuzma can be a capable scorer when given the chance. He has scored in double digits in all but one of his last nine games, averaging 13.9 points while shooting 48 percent from the floor in that stretch.

Will return to rotation Head coach Doc Rivers said Wednesday that Kuzma will return to the rotation after going unused off the bench in Monday's loss to Boston, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kuzma fell out of the rotation Monday with Giannis Antetokounmpo returning from a 15-game absence due to a right calf strain. However, Kuzma is not expected to collect dust on the bench and appears likely to see the floor in Wednesday's game against the Hawks. Rivers added that he suspects the Bucks will put the ball back in the veteran forward's hands on offense, so it wouldn't be surprising if Kuzma is utilized in a playmaking role when Antetokounmpo rests.

Fails to appear Monday Kuzma (coach's decision) didn't play in Monday's game against the Celtics.

Impact Kuzma surprisingly fell out of the rotation in Giannis Antetokounmpo's return to the court. The Utah product was averaging 25.2 minutes per game in his previous 10 appearances, though it remains to be seen how he'll be utilized moving forward. Coach Doc Rivers confirmed after the game that it was a coach's decision to sit Kuzma, per Eric Nehm of The Athletic, so that clears up any concern about a potential injury.

Good to go Thursday Kuzma (foot) is available for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Despite dealing with left foot soreness, Kuzma will play in the second half of the Bucks' back-to-back and should face no restrictions. The 30-year-old has started 10 games in a row, during which Kuzma has averaged 13.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.1 three-pointers in 30.4 minutes per contest.

Listed as questionable Kuzma is questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder with left foot soreness.

Impact Kuzma is in danger of missing Milwaukee's final contest before the All-Star break. His potential absence Thursday would free up significant playing time for Bobby Portis and Ousmane Dieng to help soak up at power forward.

Nets 15 points with seven boards Kuzma registered 15 points (5-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds and two assists across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 116-108 victory over Orlando.

Impact Kuzma had attempted just eight shots over 49 total minutes across his previous two games, but he matched that number before halftime Wednesday, benefiting from Ryan Rollins' (foot) absence. With more opportunities flowing his way, Kuzma was noticeably more involved in the offense. If Rollins remains sidelined Thursday in Oklahoma City, Kuzma should once again see an expanded role.

Impact Kuzma missed Friday's win over the Pacers with some soreness in his left calf, but it looks like he'll be back in the fray Monday. Kuzma's return will likely result in Jericho Sims heading back to the second unit.
