Goes for 25 points vs. HOU Ryan ended with 25 points (9-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Ryan provided a huge spark off the bench for the Bucks for a second straight appearance, as he had 13 points across 20 minutes in the loss to the Clippers on March 29. Ryan can be a decent scoring weapon off the bench for the Bucks, but if that role doesn't change, his fantasy appeal will remain limited to being just a streaming, matchup-based alternative in deep leagues.

Productive in spot start Nance closed Wednesday's 119-113 loss to the Rockets with 23 points (9-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt), three rebounds and one block over 40 minutes.

Impact Nance is expected to play a bigger role in the final days of the regular season for a Milwaukee team that doesn't have anything to play for, and if he performs like he did Wednesday, he should be an excellent fantasy pick-up. He has started in four of Milwaukee's last five games, but he's averaging just 10.0 points and 4.2 boards per game in that stretch. There's a chance this 23-point output was just an outlier and not a sign of things to come in the coming games.

Drains five threes in loss Green posted 15 points (5-15 FG, 5-13 3Pt), eight rebounds and two assists in 46 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Green remains a reliable outside threat, and while he doesn't score enough to lead the Bucks offensively on a game-to-game basis, it's worth noting that he's outstanding in category-based leagues due to his three-point shooting numbers. Green has drained multiple threes in nine of his last 11 games, a stretch in which he's averaging 9.9 points per game but shooting an impressive 41.2 percent from beyond the arc.

Logs career highs in win Dieng finished Wednesday's 119-113 loss to the Rockets with 36 points (15-31 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 assists, seven rebounds and one steal across 45 minutes.

Impact Dieng struggled from three-point range but made the most of his increased opportunities with Milwaukee shorthanded in the second leg of this back-to-back set. The 22-year-old forward returned to the first unit after coming off the bench in Tuesday's win over Dallas, and he dropped a game- and career-high 36 points. The fourth-year pro also dished out a game- and career-best 10 dimes, marking his sixth consecutive contest with at least four assists. Dieng should continue to see significant burn for the Bucks, who have already been eliminated from playoff contention and will likely want an extended look at him before he enters restricted free agency this summer.

Exits early Wednesday Trent won't return to Wednesday's game against the Rockets due to a hip contusion. He'll finish with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one steal in seven minutes.

Impact Trent checked out with 4:32 remaining in the opening quarter and won't return due to the hip injury. His next opportunity to play will come Friday against Boston. The Bucks have just seven players available for the remainder of Wednesday's game, so Cormac Ryan and Andre Jackson will likely help pick up the slack.

Starting Wednesday Dieng will start Wednesday's game against the Rockets, per Lachard Binkley of SI.com.

Impact After shifting to the bench for Tuesday's win over the Mavericks upon Kuzma's return, Dieng will immediately rejoin the first unit for the second leg of Milwaukee's back-to-back set. The 22-year-old forward remained highly productive despite his brief reserve role Tuesday, posting an 11-point, 10-rebound double-double across 29 minutes. With Kuzma officially sidelined again, Dieng is primed for a heavy workload.

Starting against Houston Nance is in the Bucks' starting lineup against the Rockets on Wednesday, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

Impact Nance started in three consecutive games before moving to a bench role for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks. He played well in that contest, logging 11 points, six rebounds, three assists, two blocks, one steal and two three-pointers across 16 minutes in a 123-99 victory. Nance will join Ousmane Dieng, AJ Green, Jericho Sims and Gary Trent in the Bucks' starting five for Wednesday's road tilt.

Returning to starting five Green is in the Bucks' starting lineup against the Rockets on Wednesday, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

Impact Green has started for the majority of the 2025-26 regular season, though he's come off the bench in 10 of the Bucks' last 14 games. He's played well as of late, accumulating 32 points while shooting 50.0 percent from the field over his last two games, so he'll make his way back into Milwaukee's starting lineup for Wednesday's tilt, joining Ousmane Dieng, Pete Nance, Jericho Sims and Gary Trent.

Ruled out Wednesday Rollins (hip) won't play in Wednesday's game in Houston.

Impact Rollins didn't suit up for Sunday's 127-113 loss to the Clippers before returning for Tuesday's win over the Dallas Mavericks. He logged 36 minutes, finishing with 24 points, seven rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 36 minutes. However, the 23-year-old won't play in the second of a back-to-back. With Kevin Porter (knee) out as well, the Bucks will lean on Andre Jackson, AJ Green, and Gary Trent to handle most of the work in the backcourt.

Questionable for Wednesday Rollins (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Houston.

Impact A right hip strain may keep Rollins out for the second leg of this back-to-back set, though it could be maintenance related. Gary Trent and AJ Green could be very involved in the backcourt if Rollins is held out.

Out again Wednesday Antetokounmpo (calf) is out for Wednesday's game against Houston.

Impact The veteran forward will miss his fourth straight game and remains without a timetable to return. His next chance to play comes Friday against Boston.

Resting Wednesday Kuzma has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets due to right Achilles tendonopathy.

Impact After missing four straight games, Kuzma returned to action Tuesday, posting 20 points (9-17 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 23 minutes during Tuesday's 123-99 victory over the Mavericks. However, he'll take a seat for the second half of Milwaukee's back-to-back. Given how shorthanded the Bucks are going to be Wednesday, Andre Jackson may see enough minutes to warrant streaming consideration.

Won't play Wednesday Prince (neck) is out for Wednesday's game against Houston.

Impact The veteran forward will sit out the second leg of this back-to-back set. With this news, AJ Green and Gary Trent are likely to see increased reps.

Out again Wednesday Harris (personal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Harris has made only three appearances since March 2. Even when available, his role is inconsistent for a team with a revolving rotation.

Sitting out again Wednesday Portis (wrist) is out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Portis will be sidelined for a fifth straight game Wednesday and remains without a timetable to return. Ousmane Dieng will likely continue to shoulder a big workload for the Bucks.

Ruled out Wednesday Turner (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Turner will get a maintenance day for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The Bucks are extremely thin up front, and that could result in more minutes for Jericho Sims and Pete Nance.

21 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Out again Wednesday Antetokounmpo (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Impact There's been no indication that Antetokounmpo is getting close to a return, and it doesn't help his case that the Bucks have nothing to play for. He can be considered doubtful for Friday's game against Boston.
