Lands three triples in win Connaughton chipped in 16 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes during Thursday's 114-102 win over the Wizards.
Impact Connaughton scored at least 14 points for the third straight game since returning from injury. His role is locked in at around 22 minutes per night, with him playing as a glue guy off the bench. Across those three games, Connaughton has connected on a combined 11 three-pointers, grabbing 11 boards. He is not on the radar in standard formats, although he can have some value as a streaming option for anyone in need of perimeter scoring.

Bucks 119 - Timberwolves 138 ' Pat Connaughton Returns ' 3.19.22
MARCH 20, 2022 • YOUTUBE
Drains five threes in return Connaughton totaled 15 points (5-11 FG, 5-11 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 138-119 loss to Minnesota.
Impact The 29-year-old wing hadn't played since Feb. 10 due to a finger injury, but with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) sidelined, it was an opportune time for Connaughton to make his return. He was having the best season of his career from beyond the arc prior to getting hurt, averaging 2.3 made threes a game and draining 40.7 percent of his long-range attempts, so Saturday's shooting success is a strong sign he's fully recovered from his injury.

Impact Connaughton is set to appear for the first time since Feb. 10 after needing surgery to repair a fractured finger. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) sidelined, Connaughton could see more usage than normal, although it's unclear if he'll be limited in any way coming off the extended absence.

Impact Connaughton hasn't played in over a month after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured finger, but it sounds like he is on track to return for Saturday's tilt with Minnesota. Prior to the surgery, Connaughton was averaging 10.1 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 27.0 minutes per game.

Impact Connaughton underwent surgery Feb. 14 to repair a fractured finger on his right hand, so he's approximately three and a half weeks into his recovery program. Assuming Connaughton experiences no setbacks while he regains conditioning and waits for the finger to fully heal, he could make his return at some point toward the back half of the Bucks' upcoming four-game, one-week road trip that kicks off Saturday at Golden State.
