Bobby Portis Draws Start Tuesday
4 years agoMilwaukee Bucks power forward/center Bobby Portis has been shifted into the starting five for Tuesday's game against Golden State in place of Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee). The start will mark just the third of the season for Portis, who has combined for 29 points and 19 boards in his two prior outings among the first unit, both of which have been wins. Shooting a career-best 54 percent from the field this season, Portis continues to have season-long appeal in mid-sized categories or points formats. The injury to Antetokounmpo doesn't appear to be serious, so this figures to be just a one game elevation for Portis, giving him added DFS appeal for what should be an up-tempo showing.

Bobby Portis Returning Against Charlotte
2 months agoMilwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (personal) will play on Wednesday against Charlotte. He missed the last six games due to a personal matter. But he was upgraded to probable on Tuesday night, so fantasy managers had hope he would be back. Portis will likely head back to the bench, considering Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), Damian Lillard (groin), and Brook Lopez (back) are good to go. But with a favorable matchup versus the Hornets on the agenda, Portis deserves a spot in any fantasy lineup.

Bobby Portis Remains Absent Monday
2 months agoMilwaukee Bucks forward/center Bobby Portis (personal) will not return to the lineup on Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Initially, there was a chance Portis would be available after the team listed him as doubtful for the game. However, Milwaukee has now ruled him out, meaning Portis will miss a sixth consecutive game. Andre Jackson Jr. and Taurean Prince will be the only regular starters in the Bucks lineup on Monday, so players like AJ Green and Gary Trent Jr. are expected to step up for the team.

Bobby Portis Considered Doubtful On Monday
2 months agoMilwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (personal) has joined the long list of injuries for Monday due to personal reasons and is considered doubtful to suit up against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Portis has missed the team's last six games due to personal reasons, and it seems likely that he'll make it seven in a row on Monday. With the long injury report including Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), Damian Lillard (groin), and Khris Middleton (ankle) all ruled out, the Bucks will have to reach deep into their reserves. AJ Green, Gary Trent Jr., and Pat Connaughton will all likely see some added minutes. Green is in the top of the three in streaming options after dropping 14 points, three rebounds, one assist, and two steals off of the bench in their last game.

Bobby Portis Remains Out On Friday
2 months agoMilwaukee Bucks center Bobby Portis (personal) remains out ahead of Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Portis will now miss his fourth game in a row due to personal reasons. The Bucks haven't given a timetable on Portis, so for now fantasy managers should consider him as day-to-day. Portis has seen his playing time take a dip over the last few weeks. It'll be interesting to see what kind of role he has in the rotation once he's cleared to play again. The Bucks will likely use a committee approach between Pat Connaughton, Taurean Prince, and Gary Trent Jr. until Portis returns. Between the three, Trent appears to be getting the biggest boost in playing time.
