Won't play Wednesday Beverley (ankle) will not play Wednesday against Memphis.

Impact Beverley picked up his right ankle injury Tuesday against the Wizards and did not return to the game, though he did come back out to join the team on the bench for the fourth quarter.

Ruled out for Wednesday Middleton will not play Wednesday against the Grizzlies due to left ankle injury management.

Impact Wednesday is the second leg of a back-to-back set, and the Bucks will err on the side of caution with the playoffs getting closer. With the Bucks being shorthanded, there could be a lot of minutes available for guys like Pat Connaughton, Jae Crowder, Andre Jackson and AJ Green.

Out again Wednesday Lillard (groin) will not play Wednesday against the Grizzlies.

Impact Lillard will miss his third straight game Wednesday, and his second in a row due to his groin. With both Lillard and Patrick Beverley (ankle) sidelined, Pat Connaughton and AJ Green could both see plenty of reps.

All-around performance vs. Wizards Middleton contributed 24 points (9-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 117-113 loss to Washington.

Impact Middleton was one rebound shy from recording his sixth double-double of the season Tuesday. After missing 16 games with a left ankle sprain, he's now played 30-plus minutes in four of his last six appearances. Since his return, Middleton is averaging 17.0 points on 49.5 percent shooting (including 37.8 percent from three on 5.3 3PA/G), 6.9 rebounds, 6.9 assists and 1.0 steals over 31.9 minutes per game.

Leads bench in scoring Tuesday Connaughton chipped in 15 points (4-11 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one block across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 117-113 loss to Washington.

Impact Tuesday's contest marked the first time since March 8 that Connaughton scored 15 points or more in a game. He saw extended playing time with Damian Lillard (personal) ruled out before the game and Patrick Beverley exiting in the third quarter after spraining his right ankle. If Lillard and Beverly are unable to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, expect Connaughton and AJ Green to see extended playing time.

Tallies triple-double Tuesday Antetokounmpo notched 35 points (15-21 FG, 5-9 FT), 15 rebounds and 10 assists over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 117-113 loss to the Wizards.

Impact With Damian Lillard (personal) out for Tuesday's game, Antetokounmpo took on the offensive load for the Bucks as he powered his way to his 10th triple-double of the season and the 45th of his career. Antetokounmpo has been dealing with left hamstring tendinopathy, and with Milwaukee playing the second game of a back-to-back Wednesday against the Wizards, the team could look to manage the minutes of the two-time MVP. Since the All-Star break, Antetokounmpo is averaging 31.0 points on 61.7 percent shooting, 12.8 rebounds and 6.7 assists over 36.2 minutes per game.

Impact Beverley left the game with 6:08 remaining to play in the third quarter, and he returned to the bench for the start of the fourth. He never saw the floor again, however, and the Bucks didn't provide any additional details. For now, he should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against Memphis. If Beverley is unable to play, Pat Connaughton and AJ Green could see more minutes.

Heads to locker room Beverley left Tuesday's game against the Wizards with 6:08 remaining to play in the third quarter with an apparent leg injury, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Beverley had a pretty noticeable limp and initially stayed on the bench when he checked out, only to head to the locker room shortly after. If he's unable to return, Pat Connaughton will likely see more reps in the backcourt.

Good to go Tuesday Beauchamp (back) is available Tuesday versus Washington.

Impact Beauchamp is cleared for action following a bout of back spasms. The second-year forward has compiled just eight minutes of action since March 1.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Suiting up Tuesday Beverley (wrist) is available to face the Wizards on Tuesday.

Impact Beverley's wrist issue shouldn't stop him from playing going forward, as the veteran floor general elected against surgery and will try to play through pain until the end of the campaign. With Damian Lillard (groin) out, look for Beverley to remain in the starting lineup vs. Washington.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Will play Tuesday Middleton (ankle) is available to face the Wizards on Tuesday.

Impact Middleton was listed as probable in the Bucks' latest injury report, so his availability for this matchup is not a surprise. Middleton is averaging 12.8 points, 7.5 rebounds and 7.3 assists in 33.8 minutes per game over his last four contests in which he's been part of the injury report.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Available Tuesday Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is available to face the Wizards on Tuesday.

Impact Antetokounmpo was listed as probable in Milwaukee's latest injury report, so the chances of him playing were already quite high. Look for the star forward to handle his regular workload on both ends of the court. He's averaging 30.2 points, 15.8 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.4 blocks and 1.0 steals in 38.4 minutes per game across his last five outings.
