Likely to play Thursday Crowder is probable for Thursday's game versus the Pacers due to left calf soreness.

Scores 11 versus former team Crowder supplied 11 points (3-4 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes off the bench Tuesday in the Bucks' 116-104 win over the Suns.
Impact Playing in Phoenix for the first time since the Suns traded him to Milwaukee at the deadline, Crowder appeared to be comfortable in the familiar confines of the Footprint Center, with the three triples representing a new season-high total. Crowder has suited up in each of the Bucks' first 11 games out of the All-Star break and has played between 13 and 25 minutes in those contests. As a tertiary scorer for Milwaukee who doesn't contribute much in the way of defensive stats, Crowder likely won't warrant much attention in the majority of fantasy leagues unless his playing time picks up dramatically.

Suns' Kevin Durant out after injuring ankle in pregame slip
Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant slipped on the floor during pregame warmups and was ruled out Wednesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder because of left ankle sorenessMARCH 9, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Lands on injury report Crowder is probable for Thursday's game against the Nets due to right ankle soreness.
Impact With Giannis Antetokounmpo (illness) and Jrue Holiday (neck) sidelined, Crowder popped for 15 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT) during Tuesday's win over the Magic, but he appears to have tweaked his ankle as well. However, the issue doesn't seem serious and shouldn't prevent the veteran forward from suiting up. Either way, Antetokounmpo and Holiday are expected to return Thursday, so Crowder figures to have a reduced role versus Brooklyn.

Logs 16 minutes in season debut Crowder provided nine points (3-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 16 minutes during Friday's 128-99 win over the Heat.
Impact Crowder made his Bucks and season debut Friday, returning to the court after he elected to remain away from the Suns since the start of training camp until he was shipped to Milwaukee ahead of the trade deadline earlier this month. Due to the blowout nature of the contest, it was difficult to get a read on what Crowder's role might look like moving forward, but he at least looks as though he'll be a regular rotation player for head coach Mike Budenholzer. Even so, unless Crowder pushes closer to a 25-to-30-minute role, he's unlikely to carry much value outside of deeper leagues as anything more than a streaming option for three-pointers and steals.
