Not playing Friday Trent (back) is out for Friday's game against the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Trent was limited to just eight minutes off the bench in Thursday's win over the Jazz, and while it's unclear if that was due to the back spasms he's dealing with, he's now set to miss his first game of the campaign. Andre Jackson will remain in the starting lineup with Trent sidelined.

Good to go Friday Coach Doc Rivers said that Antetokounmpo (thigh) will play in Friday's game against the Knicks, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact Antetokounmpo has been a mainstay on the injury report this season due to a right adductor strain and right patella tendinitis, though he has missed only one regular-season matchup thus far. Through seven regular-season appearances, the superstar has averaged an impressive 31.0 points, 12.9 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.6 blocks while shooting 61.7 percent from the field across 34.4 minutes per game.

Impact Rollins has appeared in six of Milwaukee's first eight regular-season games but has yet to play more than seven minutes. As a two-way player, he'll likely get some extended action in the G League. The Bucks' G League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd, starts their season Friday versus the Iowa Wolves.

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.

Seven points in first start Jackson amassed seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and four steals across 28 minutes during Thursday's 123-100 victory over the Jazz.
Impact The Bucks started Jackson for Gary Trent during Thursday's win, and while the former's participation didn't move the needle much at the position, he produced four steals and was accurate with the looks he was given. Jackson's tenure with the first visit is unclear, but the 2-6 Bucks are scrambling to find a formula to get them back on track.

Sizzles with 34 points Lillard ended Thursday's 123-100 victory over the Jazz with 34 points (12-22 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and four steals over 37 minutes.
Impact Lillard led the way with Giannis Antetokounmpo back in the lineup as the Bucks sealed a decisive win against the Jazz. Lillard is in the midst of an excellent scoring streak, averaging 37.0 points, 7.7 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals over the past three games.

Ruled out once again Friday Middleton (ankle) has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Knicks, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact Middleton has yet to make his season debut, though he appears to be nearing a return to game action as coach Doc Rivers said Wednesday that he is progressing to 3-on-3 work, according to Eric Nehm of The Athletic. The 33-year-old's next chance to make his debut will come Sunday against the Celtics, though he is not likely to suit up that early on while recovering from surgeries to both ankles.

Probable Friday Antetokounmpo (thigh) is probable for Friday's game versus the Knicks, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact Antetokounmpo will likely play in the second day of a back-to-back set after Thursday's win over the Jazz. The superstar has been a mainstay on the injury report due to a right adductor strain and right patella tendinitis, though he has missed only one regular-season outing thus far. Through seven regular-season appearances, the two-time MVP has averaged 31.0 points, 12.9 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.6 blocks while shooting 61.7 percent from the field across 34.4 minutes per game.
