Jrue Holiday - Will be back Sunday Holiday (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.
Giannis Antetokounmpo - Probable Sunday Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable for Sunday's game against Dallas.

Bobby Portis - Goes for 25 points in loss Portis ended Friday's 153-119 loss to the Clippers with 25 points (12-20 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal in 26 minutes.
Impact The Bucks rested most of their regulars and that allowed Portis the chance to see an extended run -- an opportunity the big man didn't disappoint. He moved to a bench role with Brook Lopez taking over the starting job at center over the last two weeks or so, but Portis can still get it done when called upon. For what it's worth, he has averaged 15.5 points and 9.3 rebounds per game as a starter this season.
APRIL 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Nwora - Solid game as starter Nwora recorded 28 points (10-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and one block across 40 minutes during Friday's 153-119 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Nwora has been forced to settle for a bench role, but he's been able to deliver good numbers when given extended playing time. He's played at least 25 minutes in 17 different games and is averaging 14.6 points per game while shooting 39.4 percent from deep in that span. Plus, he's also averaging 15.7 points and 6.3 rebounds per game as a starter.
APRIL 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jevon Carter - Comes close to double-double Carter had 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Friday's 153-119 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Carter ended just two dimes shy of what would've been his first double-double in his first start of the campaign, but at least he produced a season-best output in assists and his second-best scoring effort of the year as well. Despite the strong output, Carter is not expected to put up these numbers going forward, as he only got an extended run because the Bucks rested most of their regulars.
