Kyle Kuzma News, Rumors, Updates - Milwaukee Bucks

Quiet performance in win Kuzma notched four points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 113-109 victory over the Pistons.

Impact Kuzma has not transitioned well to the bench from a production standpoint, averaging just 9.5 points (inflated by a 20-point outlier Nov. 28), 2.8 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in his last four games after averaging 12.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.9 assists in his last eight starts. However, with Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) slated to miss the next several weeks, Kuzma could find himself back in the starting lineup, where his fantasy value instantly becomes more appealing.

Nearly perfect from field Kuzma chipped in 20 points (8-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Friday's 118-109 loss to New York.

Impact Kuzma stepped up every time the Bucks needed him, and he missed only one of his nine shots from the field, resulting in his best outing of the season by a wide margin in terms of efficiency. This was Kuzma's fourth game with at least 20 points, and surprisingly, three of those performances have come when he plays off the bench.

Will play Saturday Kuzma (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Impact Despite being a late addition to the injury report, Kuzma has been cleared to play Saturday. Kuzma has drawn five straight starts, but it's been a mixed bag in terms of production. Regardless, he'll remain in the starting lineup and see increased usage until Giannis Antetokounmpo (thigh) is cleared to return.

Under the weather Kuzma (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Impact The Bucks will track Kuzma's progress throughout the day to determine whether he can shake off an illness and play in Saturday's game. Gary Trent or Garry Harris would likely step into the Bucks' starting lineup if Kuzma is unable to play. Kuzma has started in Milwaukee's last five games, and over that span he has connected on just 39.3 percent of his field-goal attempts (including 17.6 percent from three on 3.4 3PA/G) while averaging 13.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.6 steals over 30.2 minutes per contest.

Shooting woes surface again Kuzma supplied 17 points (6-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 38 minutes during Thursday's 123-114 overtime loss to the 76ers.

Impact Kuzma surpassed the 15-point mark for the second time in his last five outings as a starter, but it's hard to get excited with a 6-for-14 shooting line that included going 0-for-5 from deep. Kuzma is a valuable scorer, but his lack of consistency from game to game significantly limits his upside. Over his last 10 games, Kuzma is averaging 14.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.9 steals per game.

Dominant performance Friday Kuzma totaled 29 points (11-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and four steals over 39 minutes during Friday's 147-134 overtime victory over the Hornets.

Impact Kuzma turned in easily his best performance of the season, recording his first double-double since late March. Coming off a rough night against the Hornets on Wednesday, Kuzma got back on track, delivering on both ends of the floor. In eight games over the past two weeks, he has averaged 17.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers, good enough for top 85 value in standard formats.
