Kyle Kuzma: Absent from injury reportKuzma (quadricep) is off the injury report for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Kyle Kuzma: Leaves for locker roomKuzma exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to an apparent left leg injury, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Kyle Kuzma: Doesn't return TuesdayKuzma didn't return to Tuesday's 139-122 loss to the 76ers due to a left quadricep cramp, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports. He finished with 17 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 32 minutes.
Ryan Rollins, AJ Green, Kyle Kuzma, Bobby Portis and Myles Turner will start against the 76ers on Tuesday.Portis will enter the starting lineup, which will push Gary Harris to the bench. Harris had started the last two games for the Bucks but didn't offer much value for fantasy managers. Portis should be able to do more in the box score as a starter and could remain in that role with Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) sidelined for a while.
The Athletic's Eric Nehm reports that Giannis Antetokounmpo is without a timetable to return, per his head coach, Doc Rivers.According to Nehm, Rivers said, "He did a very good job. MRI has revealed exactly what we thought. There's no timetable. Calf strain and really no timetable for return. Hopefully, like it was before, sooner (than later), but there's no timetable." That's certainly a divergence from Giannis' initial four-to-six-week estimate. Until Antetokounmpo returns, Bobby Portis and Kyle Kuzma will share duties at PF.
