Dishes season high six assists Portis added eight points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and six assists in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 122-106 win over Chicago.

Impact While Portis was not particularly efficient from the field, he found other ways to contribute and ended the game with his season high in assists (six). Portis continues to be a key contributor for Milwaukee off the bench, averaging 13.0 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.5 blocks and 0.4 steals across 24.0 minutes.

Drops 21 points in return Portis ended Saturday's 115-114 loss to the Hornets with 21 points (9-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-5 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 24 minutes.

Impact Despite battling through a right elbow contusion that kept him out of Wednesday's win over the Pistons, Portis returned Saturday and was the third-leading scorer for the Bucks behind Taurean Prince (23) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (22). Portis has scored in double digits in seven of his last eight outings, and over that span he has averaged 14.8 points and 8.3 rebounds over 24.1 minutes per game.

Unexpectedly active for Saturday Portis (elbow) is available for Saturday's game versus the Hornets.

Impact Portis has been upgraded from doubtful all the way to available Saturday despite dealing with a right elbow contusion. Across his last five appearances, Portis is averaging 15.2 points and 8.8 rebounds in 24.8 minutes.

NOVEMBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely for Saturday Coach Doc Rivers said Friday that Portis (elbow) probably won't play in Saturday's matchup against the Hornets, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Portis is dealing with a right elbow contusion and can be considered questionable at best after missing Wednesday's overtime win over the Pistons. If the big man misses a second consecutive contest, Taurean Prince and Andre Jackson will likely see an uptick in playing time and an increased role.

With key teammates out, Antetokounmpo steps up with 59 points to lead Bucks over Pistons in OT

Late scratch Wednesday Portis is officially out for Wednesday's game against Detroit due to a right elbow contusion, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Portis being ruled out within 90 minutes of tipoff is a twist for Milwaukee's frontcourt. Brook Lopez has logged at least 35 minutes in three of Milwaukee's last six games, and a similar workload may be in store with Portis unavailable. Taurean Prince could log extra minutes at power forward, while MarJon Beauchamp could enter the rotation.

Productive off bench Tuesday Portis finished with 17 points (8-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt) and eight rebounds in 18 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 99-85 victory over the Raptors.

Impact The veteran big continues to struggle from beyond the arc, but Portis still managed to post solid numbers on the night. He's drained multiple threes only once in 11 games to begin the season, shooting a career-low 24.3 percent from downtown, but Portis has maintained a decent fantasy floor with 12.9 points and 8.2 boards a contest.

Bounces back in loss Portis notched 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 113-107 loss to the Celtics.

Impact The 29-year-old forward led the bench in scoring in a bounce-back game, during which he also finished as the club's second-highest scorer behind Giannis Antetokounmpo (43). Portis has been inconsistent while shooting 45.4 percent from the field, which would be his lowest mark during his tenure in Milwaukee. Through 10 regular-season outings, the big man has averaged 12.5 points and 8.2 rebounds across 25.1 minutes per game.

Shooting struggles in loss Portis posted four points (1-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 17 minutes during Friday's 116-94 loss to New York.

Impact For the first time in eight appearances, Portis failed to make multiple baskets and ended up playing a season-low 17 minutes. Given his role, Portis' production tends to fluctuate, and given he averaged 13.3 points, 8.8 rebounds and 0.8 blocks over his first eight games, it's safe to say the veteran forward will bounce back eventually.

Logs 19 points from bench Portis supplied 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and six rebounds in 27 minutes during Thursday's 123-100 win over Utah.

Impact After a night with the first unit in place of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Portis returned to the bench to resume his typical sixth-man role with the offense. His 21/18 double-double against the Cavaliers on Monday represented his most impressive double-double line in recent memory, matching an 18-rebound total he accrued during the first round of the 2023-24 NBA Playoffs. Portis' overall numbers will remain solid with the second unit.

Slides to bench Thursday Portis will retreat to the bench in Thursday's game against the Jazz.

Impact The 29-year-old forward produced a stellar performance while getting the start for Giannis Antetokounmpo (thigh) in Tuesday's loss to Cleveland, during which he posted 21 points (10-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 18 rebounds, three blocks and one assist in 39 minutes. With Antetokounmpo back in the lineup, Portis will slide to the bench and receive his normal workload in the second unit.

Massive double-double in defeat Portis ended Monday's 116-114 loss to the Cavaliers with 21 points (10-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 18 rebounds, three blocks and one assist in 39 minutes.

Impact While filling in for Giannis Antetokounmpo (thigh) in the starting five, Portis posted a monster double-double with a season high in both points and rebounds. The big man has remained a mostly consistent option off the bench thus far, leading a second unit which has had its fair share of struggles through seven regular-season games. Aside from his rebounding, Portis' best ability in fantasy is his availability, and he has played in 65 or more regular-season contests in each of his last five seasons. The 29-year-old has averaged 12.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 blocks while shooting 47.6 percent from the field across 26.3 minutes per game thus far.

Starting Monday Portis is in the Bucks' starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Portis will make his first start of the 2024-25 regular season Monday due to Giannis Antetokounmpo being sidelined with an adductor strain. Through the first six games of the campaign, Portis is averaging 11.0 points on 47.6 percent shooting, 7.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 24.2 minutes per contest.

Plays season-low 19 minutes Portis contributed four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds and one block across 19 minutes during Monday's 119-108 loss to the Celtics.

Impact This was Portis' worst performance of the young season, resulting in just 19 minutes off the bench. He was productive in his previous three games, however, so fantasy managers should brush this off as a simple off night for the veteran forward. For the season, he's hitting 51.3 percent of his shots from the field.
