Impact Holiday was efficient and contributed across the box score, but he still logged an ugly minus-20 during his time on the floor. His 32-minutes played led Milwaukee, which used all 14 active players on its roster Sunday by the conclusion of garbage time. Holiday will look to make a greater impact Tuesday against the Wizards.

Impact Middleton was solid with healthy facilitating but an uncharacteristically low-volume shooting load. It was an underwhelming performance in a primetime showdown. Middleton next faces Washington on Tuesday. He's averaged 21.0 points per game against the Wizards across 22 prior matchups.

George Hill - Officially out Sunday Hill (neck) is out Sunday against the Nuggets.

Impact Hill was considered doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup, and he'll officially be sidelined due to neck soreness. Donte DiVincenzo and Grayson Allen should see additional run against Denver.

One Play: Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo shooting fadeaway jumpers is a scary reminder of his limitless ceiling Giannis Antetokounmpo is still a dunking machine, but he continues to add to his game in ways that should terrify the rest of the NBA.

Rodney Hood - Listed as probable Hood (Achilles) is probable for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Hood was unavailable Friday against the Knicks due to a sore right Achilles, but he appears likely to play against Denver. The 29-year-old has averaged 2.0 points in 8.5 minutes per game across his last two appearances.

George Hill - Unlikely to play Sunday Hill is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Nuggets due to neck soreness.

Impact Hill came off the bench in each of his last two appearances and averaged 3.5 points and 2.5 rebounds in 19.0 minutes per game during that time. If he's ultimately held out Sunday, Donte DiVincenzo and Grayson Allen should see slightly increased usage.

Grayson Allen - Strong showing in return Allen finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals across 30 minutes during Friday's 123-108 victory over New York.

Impact Back in the lineup after serving his one-game suspension Wednesday against the Cavs, Allen turned in a well-rounded effort highlighted by the three three-pointers and two steals. Allen's production has been a bit more inconsistent over the last few weeks, but he remains a decent, lower-end option in season-long leagues thanks in large part to his 2.6 three-pointers per game.

Jrue Holiday - Bounces back with double-double Holiday amassed 24 points (8-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, 10 assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 123-108 win over the Knicks.

Impact Coming off of one of his worst games of the season Wednesday against the Cavs (four points in 32 minutes), Holiday responded with a well-rounded stat line, posting his first double-double since Jan. 5. Holiday's four three-pointers tied his season high, and he's now up to 38.4 percent from deep on the season. Across the board, Holiday's production is strikingly similar to his 2020-21 figures, though his free throw percentage (75.3% FT) is down slightly compared to last season (78.7% FT).

Giannis Antetokounmpo - Another monster effort in win Antetokounmpo closed with 38 points (12-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 12-16 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 123-108 win over the Knicks.

Impact Coming off of a disappointing loss to the Cavs on Wednesday, the two-time MVP responded with yet another monster double-double, adding five assists and drilling multiple three-pointers for the second time in four games. Antetokounmpo's overall numbers continue to mirror those of his last few seasons, and although his free throw percentage may never be a strength (72.1% FT this season), it's not as much of a glaring liability as it was last season (68.5% FT) or in 2019-20 (63.3% FT).

Impact Middleton was cold from three, fueling an overall inefficient night. Nonetheless, across January, Middleton is slashing a robust shooting line of 49/45.5/90.5. He'll look to end the month on a high note Sunday against the Nuggets.
