Carter scores career-high 36, Bucks beat Thunder in 2 OTs

Jevon Carter had career highs of 36 points and 12 assists, and the short-handed Milwaukee Bucks beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 136-132 in two overtimes

NOVEMBER 10, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Three blocks, two steals in loss Carter notched two points (1-4 FG), three rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals across 26 minutes during Monday's 117-98 loss to the Hawks.

Impact While Milwaukee suffered its first loss of the season to the Trae Young-less Hawks, Carter turned in another stellar defensive performance. A newly minted starter this season -- at least while Khris Middleton (wrist) remains out -- Carter is averaging a career-high 24.2 minutes per game. He's not providing much in terms of points (5.3 PPG), rebounds (2.3 RPG) or assists (1.9 APG), though he's adding 1.7 steals, 0.8 blocks and 1.2 threes per game, which gives him some appeal in deeper fantasy leagues.

Quietly productive in win Carter provided 14 points (5-13 FG, 4-11 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 33 minutes during Friday's 119-108 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Carter chipped in across the board in the win, continuing what has been a surprising start to the season. Since being inserted into the starting lineup, Carter has been able to contribute at least one steal in each of the last four games. His other numbers are far from spectacular, but given his current role, he could have some limited value in deeper formats.

Bucks stay undefeated with 119-108 victory over Knicks

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 30 points, 14 rebounds and nine assists as the Milwaukee Bucks remained unbeaten with a 119-108 victory over the New York Knicks

Starting Thursday Carter will start Thursday's matchup against the 76ers, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.

Impact Carter received the starting nod for Thursday's regular-season opener with teammates Khris Middleton (wrist) and Pat Connaughton (calf) sidelined. Carter immediately becomes a value in DFS formats while maintaining streaming appeal for as long as he remains in the starting lineup.

Three-point barrage Thursday Carter produced 17 points (6-10 FG, 5-6 3Pt) and three assists in 22 minutes in a 123-113 loss Thursday in a preseason game against Atlanta in Abu Dhabi.

Impact Carter had a great first half, scoring 14 points and going 4-for-4 from beyond the arc in just 10 minutes of playing time. He was less productive in the second half and took only one shot in the fourth quarter despite playing eight minutes. The former West Virginia Mountaineer signed a two-year contract with the Bucks in the offseason after latching on with the team midseason last year. He's a career 38.3 percent shooter on threes and can provide solid defense in a backup role.

Portis eager to prove his worth after getting big contract

Will run it back in Milwaukee Carter and the Bucks agreed to terms Thursday on a two-year contract, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact The details of the deal are yet to be released, but it's likely for near the league minimum and may not be fully guaranteed. Either way, the contract offers Carter some security after he was waived by the Nets midway through last season before catching on with Milwaukee. Carter will continue to provide defensive-minded depth at point guard behind Jrue Holiday, but he's unlikely to make much of a fantasy impact.
