Taurean Prince News, Rumors, Updates - Milwaukee Bucks

Held scoreless in victory Prince recorded zero points (0-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one steal in 18 minutes during Thursday's 100-95 win over the Suns.

Impact Prince made a second straight start in place of the injured Jarred Vanderbilt (heel) but struggled to get anything going in the win. A popular waiver-wire pickup after pouring in 18 points on 6-for-8 shooting from the field in the Lakers' season-opening loss to the Nuggets on Tuesday, Prince took a big step back Thursday and is likely to find himself dropped in many leagues as a result. The 29-year-old may remain on the top unit while Vanderbilt remains without a clear target date for a return, but expect Prince's stat lines to be highly volatile, making him tough to trust outside of deeper formats.

Will start in season opener Lakers coach Darvin Ham said Saturday that Prince will start at small forward during Tuesday's regular-season opener against the Nuggets, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Impact Prince starting in the season opener doesn't necessarily mean he will keep that role throughout the season, as Jarred Vanderbilt is dealing with a heel injury. Regardless, Prince will start alongside LeBron James at the forward position against Denver.

Leads team in scoring Friday Prince posted 17 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 20 minutes Friday in a preseason loss to Golden State.

Impact Prince played the second-fewest minutes among Lakers starters but still managed to lead the team in scoring on the strength of efficient shooting from both the field and the charity stripe. Following a quiet effort in Los Angeles' exhibition opener last weekend, Prince has looked great in his subsequent three contests, averaging 14.3 points on 68.2 percent shooting from the floor. Prince has started each of those three contests and is making a strong case to win the battle between himself, Rui Hachimura and Jarred Vanderbilt (heel) for a spot in the starting unit come the regular season.

Plays well in start Prince recorded 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 3PT), one rebound and one assist in 20 minutes during Monday's 129-126 preseason win over the Nets.

Impact Prince was given the nod in the starting lineup, while Rui Hachimura was used off the bench and Jarred Vanderbilt was inactive. These three players are vying for the final spot in the starting lineup alongside D'Angelo Russell, Austin Reaves, LeBron James and Anthony Davis, so credit to Prince for making a strong case.

Enters starting five Prince is starting Monday's preseason game against the Nets, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Impact Prince will continue his battle for a starting role Monday night and could put himself ahead of the pack with a solid showing. The veteran forward is competing with Jarred Vanderbilt (heel) and Rui Hachimura for the final starting spot alongside D'Angelo Russell, Austin Reaves, LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Starting Game 2 Prince will enter the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Prince will make his first playoff start since 2016-2017 on Wednesday, taking over the small forward position typically filled by Jaden McDaniels (hand), whom Nickeil Alexander-Walker filled in for in Game 1. In four starts this season, Prince averaged 14.5 points, 4.0 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 28.3 minutes. However, those stats are skewed by a 35-point outburst on March 20 where he shot 12-of-13 from the field and 8-of-8 from beyond the arc.

Prolific points production Prince ended Monday's 140-134 victory over the Knicks with 35 points (12-13 FG, 8-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes.

Impact Prince tallied a season-high 35 points in the victory, including a perfect 8-of-8 from the three-point line. While Prince was on the streaming radar prior to this game, even the savviest of managers couldn't have expected a performance like this. Until Anthony Edwards returns from his ankle injury, Prince should continue to serve as the primary beneficiary, making him a worthwhile short-term asset.
