MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Khris Middleton - Will start in return Middleton (ankle) will start Sunday's game against the Suns, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact It's safe to assume Middleton will be monitored closely during his first game since Feb. 6, but the Bucks will be without Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring), so Middleton needs to be aggressive when on the court. In 43 appearances this season, Middleton has averaged 14.8 points, 5.0 assists and 4.3 rebounds in 26.3 minutes per game.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Patrick Beverley - Returns to bench Sunday Beverley will come off the bench with Khris Middleton (ankle) returning to the starting lineup Sunday versus Phoenix, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact Beverley's sparkplug energy could be needed with Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) ruled out Sunday. Regardless, he will come off the bench, where he is averaging just 2.8 points and 2.5 rebounds in 19.0 minutes across his last four appearances with the second unit.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
MarJon Beauchamp - Ruled out Sunday Beauchamp (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Suns.
Impact Despite Doc Rivers saying pregame that he expected Beauchamp, Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) and Malik Beasley (back) to all suit up, only Beasley has been upgraded to available. Beauchamp's absence shouldn't impact Milwaukee's rotation.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Malik Beasley - Will play Sunday Beasley (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Suns.
Impact Beasley has been upgraded from questionable to available, while Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) and MarJon Beauchamp (back) have been downgraded to out. Beasley has struggled to start March, shooting just 31.3 percent over his last six appearances.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Giannis Antetokounmpo - Officially ruled out Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against Phoenix, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Contrary to pregame statements from coach Doc Rivers, Antetokounmpo will be out Sunday -- marking his first absence since March 4. Malik Beasley (back) is supposedly on track to play, which would bring the rest of the primary rotation to full strength. Milwaukee has posted a 2-1 record without Antetokounmpo this season, earning wins over the Clippers and Raptors, but getting blown out by Cleveland.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
MarJon Beauchamp - Expected to suit up Beauchamp (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Suns, but he's expected to suit up, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact While the second-year wing will likely be available, he's not guaranteed any playing time. Beauchamp has made just two appearances in March, totaling five minutes of action.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Malik Beasley - Expected to play Beasley (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Suns, but he's expected to play, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Beasley was in danger of missing back-to-back games due to back spasms, but it looks like he'll be good to go Sunday. It's been a struggle for the sharpshooter recently, as he's shooting just 35.4 percent from the field over his last eight appearances.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Giannis Antetokounmpo - Warming up Sunday Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is active at morning warm-ups in advance of Sunday's game against Phoenix, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact Antetokounmpo is questionable for Sunday's game due to left hamstring tendinitis. The 29-year-old appears on track for a 1:00 p.m. ET tipoff, which will represent the return of Khris Middleton (ankle) from a 16-game absence.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Chris Livingston - Out with ankle sprain Livingston has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Suns due to a left ankle sprain.
Impact This is a new injury for Livingston, who recently missed time due to a groin issue. Regardless, his absence shouldn't impact coach Doc Rivers' rotation.
MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Bucks' Khris Middleton set to return from injury Sunday: 'I can play' Middleton has missed 16 games with a left ankle sprain, and coach Doc Rivers admitted the return will be a tough adjustment for the Bucks.

Malik Beasley - Questionable for Sunday Beasley (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Suns.
Impact Beasley is in danger of missing his second straight contest Sunday due to back spasms. If Beasley is ruled out, Patrick Beverley will likely remain in the starting five.
MARCH 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Giannis Antetokounmpo - Iffy against Phoenix Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Suns.
Impact Antetokounmpo continues to deal with a hamstring injury but has suited up in each of Milwaukee's last five contests. If the superstar forward is ruled out, Jae Crowder, Danilo Gallinari and Pat Connaughton are candidates to receive increased playing time.
MARCH 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
MarJon Beauchamp - Questionable to play Sunday Beauchamp (back) is questionable to face the Suns on Sunday.
Impact Beauchamp has missed two games in a row due to back spasms, and given the nature of the injury, it would be surprising if he suited up for this matchup. Even in the event he ends up being available, Beauchamp isn't expected to play a major role in Doc Rivers' rotation.
MARCH 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Khris Middleton - Not listed on injury report Middleton (ankle) is not on the injury report and should play against the Suns on Sunday.
Impact The return of Middleton should provide a huge boost for the Bucks on offense, as he should slot right into the role of the third-best option on offense behind Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) and Damian Lillard. In fact, Middleton could even be in line for a prominent role right away in case Antetokounmpo doesn't play. Middleton has had a hard time with injuries this season and has been limited to just 43 games, averaging 14.8 points, 5.0 assists and 4.3 rebounds per contest.
MARCH 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Khris Middleton - Expects to return versus Suns Middleton (ankle) participated in Saturday's practice and is expected to return for Sunday's matchup with the Suns, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Middleton has not officially been cleared for Sunday's contest, but the plan is for him to play at this point according to Eric Nehm of The Athletic. The veteran wing has been sidelined since Feb. 8 with a sprained left ankle and missed 16 games as a result. Given his lengthy absence, some type of minute restrictions figures to be in play assuming he ultimately gets the green light on St. Patrick's Day.
