Impact It's the second straight double-double and the seventh of the season for Lopez, who has taken his production on the glass up a notch over the last month or so. The veteran center is averaging 15.4 points, 8.6 boards, 2.2 blocks, 1.2 assists and 1.2 threes over the last 12 games, recording double-digit rebounds five times and multiple blocks eight times.

Top rebounder in double-double game Lopez supplied 22 points (9-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 13 rebounds and four blocks across 36 minutes during Sunday's 104-101 win over the Suns.

Impact Lopez led the team in rebounds and blocks while finishing second in scoring en route to a double-double performance in a winning effort. Lopez has tallied at least 20 points and 10 rebounds on five occasions this year.

Offensive explosion Thursday Lopez finished Thursday's 112-100 win over the Bulls with 33 points (13-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-7 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and four blocks across 33 minutes.

Impact Lopez erupted for a game-high 33 points in the win, having his way against a lackluster defensive unit. Giannis Antetokounmpo (wrist) was unable to finish the game, so Lopez took it upon himself to dominate the paint. His offensive production has been up and down over the past two weeks, as he has alternated good and bad games on a consistent basis. However, his blocks remain a reliable part of his overall game, ensuring must-roster status across all formats.

Limited by foul trouble Lopez accumulated four points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 25 minutes during Tuesday's 131-125 overtime victory over the Celtics.

Impact Lopez was limited due to foul trouble in the first half and wasn't all that effective even when he was on the floor. Over his last seven appearances, the veteran big man has struggled with consistency on offense, notching two 20-plus-point outings but failing to score in double figures in the other five contests. Despite the inconsistent scoring, Lopez was still able to generate fantasy production by racking up rebounds and blocks, but those were hard to come by against Boston. For now, Tuesday's poor performance can likely be attributed to an off-night marred by foul trouble, but it'd be nice to see Lopez bounce back in a big way Thursday against Chicago, which is Milwaukee's final game before the All-Star break.

Grabs game-high 15 boards Lopez closed with 22 points (9-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), 15 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 119-106 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Lopez really got going in the second quarter, knocking down six of nine shot attempts for 14 points to go along with seven rebounds. However, the big man took only three more shots in the second half, all of which came from beyond the arc, before finishing second on the team with 22 points. Lopez added a game-high 15 boards on the night to notch his fifth double-double of the season and he's now grabbed double-digit rebounds in back-to-back games. He's also broken the 20-point mark in two of his last three, shooting 63.6 percent from the field over that stretch.

Nears double-double despite illness Lopez ended with nine points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and three blocks across 33 minutes during Thursday's 115-106 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Lopez was battling an illness leading up to the contest, but that didn't stop him from playing 33 minutes. The big man didn't come close to the 27 points he scored his previous time out, but he was still a big factor with 10 boards and three blocked shots. This was the eighth time on the campaign that Lopez has notched double-digit boards -- he didn't corral more than seven boards in any of his 12 regular-season contests during an injury-plagued season last year.

Leads Bucks with 27 points Lopez produced 27 points (9-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-9 FT), nine rebounds and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 127-108 victory over Portland.

Impact Giannis Antetokounmpo dealt with foul trouble for much of the night Monday, opening the door for Lopez to establish himself on offense more assertively than usual. The big man scored 17 points in the first half and led the Bucks with 27 points overall, recording his highest scoring total since he went off for 30 points against New Orleans on Dec. 19. Lopez entered the game having averaged just 7.7 points on 38.5 percent shooting over his previous three contests, so his performance against the Blazers was a welcome bounce-back.

Logs another solid game Lopez posted 15 points (6-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 32 minutes during Sunday's 135-110 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact Lopez has bounced back nicely from a five-point outing in Wednesday's win over Denver with two straight 15-point efforts. The big man is prone to relatively low rebound totals for a player of his size and position, but he's up to 6.2 boards per game this season, his highest average since 2015-16. Lopez is also notching a career-best 2.5 blocks per contest, with his production in that category in particular keeping him in the conversation for NBA Defensive Player of the Year honors.

Inefficient against Denver Lopez supplied five points (2-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and four blocks across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 107-99 victory over the Nuggets.

Impact Although Lopez racked up four blocks during Wednesday's win, he wasn't nearly as productive on offense and posted his third-lowest scoring total of the season while being held under 10 points for just the second time over his last nine outings. The 34-year-old has also recorded at least two blocks in seven of those nine appearances and has averaged 14.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.2 blocks in 31.4 minutes per game across that span.

Impact Defense was an afterthought for both clubs Monday, helping Lopez score at least 20 points for the first time in six games. The veteran center has been a steady contributor on offense in January, and over the last eight games, he's averaging 15.6 points, 5.3 boards, 2.5 threes, 2.0 blocks and 1.1 assists.
