Bounces back against Orlando Lillard accumulated 29 points (10-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds and nine assists across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 117-99 win over the Magic.

Impact Lillard was limited to just 12 points during Tuesday's win over Boston, but he bounced back in the second half of the back-to-back set and came within one assist of a double-double. He's made four appearances since returning from a three-game absence, averaging 25.0 points, 6.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 36.8 minutes per game.

Scores 10 in victory Lopez notched 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 117-99 win over the Magic.

Impact Lopez scored in double figures for a fifth consecutive game Wednesday, and he also made a defensive impact with three blocks. He's averaged 15.6 points and 5.8 rebounds in 29.2 minutes per game over his last five appearances, and he should continue to see plenty of run in the frontcourt late in the regular season since Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out for the Bucks' final two games before the playoffs.

Posts well-rounded stat line Beverley registered 13 points (4-6 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 117-99 victory over the Magic.

Impact Beverley was able to suit up for a second consecutive game despite his ankle injury. Although he was unable to post another double-double after he reached the mark Tuesday against Boston, the 35-year-old contributed in multiple areas. Across his last four appearances, Beverley has averaged 13.3 points, 7.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 28.5 minutes per game.

Dominant as starter Portis provided 30 points (14-18 FG, 2-2 3Pt), nine rebounds, three assists and five steals in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 117-99 win over Orlando.

Impact Portis fell just short of posting a second consecutive double-double Wednesday, but he posted his third-highest scoring total of the season while also racking up a season-high five steals. The 29-year-old should continue to see increased work over the Bucks' final two regular-season games since Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out, and Portis could also see an uptick in playing time to begin the playoffs if Antetokounmpo remains sidelined.

Sprains ankle, won't return Green (left ankle sprain) has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against Orlando. He'll finish with two points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and a steal across 16 min...

Impact Green didn't play in the second half of Wednesday's game and it's now been revealed that he sustained a sprained ankle during the contest. The sharpshooter has been a key piece for Milwaukee off the bench during the second half of the season, so with a playoff spot clinched, the Bucks could be extra cautious with Green's injury moving forward. His next chance to play will come Friday at Oklahoma City.

Gets starting nod Portis is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Magic.

Back with first unit Beasley will start Wednesday's game against the Magic.

Impact Beasley came off the bench for the first time all season Tuesday as coach Doc Rivers opted to start Patrick Beverley at the shooting guard spot. However, Beasley will start alongside Beverley on Wednesday due to the absences of Khris Middleton (ankle) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf).

APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE

Officially available Beverley (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against the Magic.

Impact Beverley was initially labeled probable for Wednesday's tilt with a sprained right ankle but, as expected, is good to go. He's fresh off his second double-double of the campaign Tuesday, logging 20 points and 10 rebounds over 26 minutes.

Impact Shams Charania reported similar sentiments Wednesday morning on FanDuel TV's "Run It Back" program and added the optimistic return timeline for an injury like this is 1-to-2 weeks, which would put Antetokounmpo's status for the postseason in doubt as well. With the Play-In Tournament taking place before the playoffs officially begin April 20, Antetokounmpo will have over a week to rest and rehab before the Bucks need to determine his status for Game 1 of their opening-round series.

Bucks breathe sigh of relief after Giannis avoids Achilles injury, but playoffs concern looms Antetokounmpo has a history of quickly returning from injuries that would sideline most. That doesn't change the Bucks' uncertain position.
