OCTOBER 26 • YOUTUBE
Good to go against Chicago Lopez (quadriceps) is available for Friday's game versus the Bulls.
Impact Lopez was added to the injury report Thursday due to a minor quadriceps injury, but the veteran big man will play through it and shouldn't have any restrictions. Therefore, expect Lopez to handle his regular workload as the Bucks' starting center. He delivered 10 points, eight rebounds, six assists and six blocks across 36 minutes in the win over the 76ers on Wednesday.

Will play Friday vs. Chicago Antetokounmpo (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Antetokounmpo was added to the injury report Thursday, but the injury is deemed minor and shouldn't slow the superstar forward down. There's no sign the 29-year-old will be on a minutes restriction Friday, meaning he shouldn't have a problem handling his regular workload as one of the focal points of the Bucks' offensive scheme. Antetokounmpo posted 25 points (8-11 FG, 9-16 FT), 14 rebounds, seven assists and one block across 31 minutes in the season-opening win over the 76ers on Wednesday.
OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE
Available to face Chicago Trent (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Bulls, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.
Impact Trent landed on the injury report due to a right calf contusion, but the injury ended up being minor, so the sharpshooter will remain in the Bucks' starting backcourt alongside Damian Lillard. Trent posted 11 points and shot 2-for-5 from three-point range in the season-opening win over the 76ers on Wednesday.
OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Friday Trent is questionable for Friday's game versus the Bulls due to a right calf strain.
Impact Trent was a late addition to the injury report, and his status is something to monitor ahead of Friday's tipoff at 8:00 p.m. ET. If the 25-year-old is limited, or unable to play, Delon Wright and Pat Connaughton are both candidates to receive more minutes.

Remains out Friday Middleton (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Middleton dealt with ankle problems throughout the preseason after undergoing surgery in the summer, and the veteran forward is not ready to suit up yet. The Bucks won't rush him, as they want him to be healthy for good once he returns to the lineup. Middleton's next chance to play will come against the Nets on Sunday.

Probable for Friday Lopez is probable for Friday's game against the Bulls due to a right quadriceps contusion.
Impact Lopez probably suffered the contusion in the season-opening win over the 76ers on Wednesday, where he recorded 10 points, eight rebounds, six assists and six blocks across 36 minutes. The probable tag suggests he's very likely to play and handle his regular workload as Milwaukee's starting center, though.
OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Friday Antetokounmpo is probable for Friday's game against the Bulls due to a right patella tendinitis.
Impact Antetokounmpo finished Wednesday's 124-109 win over the 76ers with 25 points (8-11 FG, 9-16 FT), 14 rebounds, seven assists and one block across 31 minutes, and although he didn't show signs of being affected by the injury, the Bucks are going to be overly cautious with the star forward. Having said that, the probable tag suggests he's likely to play and handle his regular workload.

Solid output in starting role Prince posted 16 points (6-7 FG, 4-5 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 win over the 76ers.
Impact Prince got the start at small forward in this season opener with Khris Middleton (ankle) sidelined, and the veteran was extremely efficient, missing just one of his shots while playing a complementary role in an offense led by two superstars in Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Prince should remain in a starting role as long as Middleton remains sidelined, and that should boost his fantasy upside, both in standard and category-based formats, as least on a short-term basis.

Shines in season-opening win Antetokounmpo finished Wednesday's 124-109 win over the 76ers with 25 points (8-11 FG, 9-16 FT), 14 rebounds, seven assists and one block across 31 minutes.
Impact Damian Lillard led the Bucks offensively with a 30-point performance in this season opener, but that shouldn't take anything away from Antetokounmpo's impressive stat line -- he finished just three assists away from recording a triple-double. A true double-double threat every time he steps on the hardwood, look for Antetokounmpo to be one of the most productive and consistent players across all fantasy formats once again in 2024-25 as long as he can stay healthy.

Scores 30 in season opener Lillard ended with 30 points (9-19 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds and six assists over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 124-109 victory over Philadelphia.
Impact Lillard led Milwaukee in scoring even ahead of Giannis Antetokounmpo, who finished with 25 points (8-11 FG, 9-16 FT), 14 rebounds and seven assists in this season opener. The star floor general is looking to bounce back from a subpar 2023-24 campaign, and while one game is too much of a small sample size to draw any conclusions from, he might be playing with a chip on his shoulder while trying to keep the Bucks as a true contender in the Eastern Conference.
