Kyle Kuzma Ruled Out On Friday
Kyle Kuzma will not be able to suit up for Friday’s contest versus the New York Knicks due to a bruised back. Kuzma picked up the injury Wednesday, and his absence leaves an even larger void with LeBron James joining him on the sidelines. It’s tough to see one specific player absorbing Kuzma’s minutes and shots, but rather a collaboration of Lakers players seeing a collective bump. Kuzma’s next chance to take the floor comes Sunday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Kyle Kuzma Ready To Play Sunday
Kyle Kuzma (illness) will be in the lineup on Sunday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Initially, he was iffy for the contest due to an illness. Kuzma has scored in single digits for three consecutive outings and finished 0-for-4 from downtown in Saturday's win over the Indiana Pacers. Across 32 minutes of action, he amassed eight points, eight rebounds, and three steals. On Sunday, Kuzma will face the NBA's top defensive team, which will make it difficult for him to overcome his slump.

Kyle Kuzma Available On Sunday
Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is available to play ahead of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kuzma has been dealing with an ankle sprain, but that won't stop him from suiting up on Sunday. He has been a solid option for the Bucks lately with 10 points or more in each of the last five games. Kuzma has been playing big minutes for the Bucks and figures to continue offering low-end value in 12-team formats.

Kyle Kuzma Will Face The Mavs On Wednesday
Kyle Kuzma (ankle) will suit up on Wednesday against Dallas. The 29-year-old has played well since being traded to Milwaukee, averaging 15.0 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 2.6 assists. He appeared on the injury report because of an ankle injury. But not only is Kuzma active, but Milwaukee will have Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) and Damian Lillard (eye). Kuzma had 10 points, eight boards, and one steal versus the Mavs on Saturday. But Dallas is even more shorthanded, so he should be more productive.

Kyle Kuzma Listed As Doubtful For Tuesday
Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is on the injury report with a doubtful tag ahead of Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This suggests that Kuzma is unlikely to play. Over his first 10 appearances with Milwaukee, the veteran forward has averaged 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 34.2 minutes. The Bucks are still without Bobby Portis (suspension), which means someone else from the second unit needs to step up. AJ Green and Gary Trent Jr. may be more involved in the action. The latter has already gained some momentum, averaging 17.5 points over the last two games.
