Khris Middleton Happy To Embrace New Role
1 year agoMilwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is ready to step aside and allow Damian Lillard to remain a top-scoring threat for the team this season. Lillard is undoubtedly one of the best offensive producers in the National Basketball Association, so Middleton was already expected to see fewer chances on the scoring end. However, now that the former Trail Blazer is in Milwaukee, everyone on the roster, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, could see a decline in many statistical areas. Of course, his immediate concern should be to get healthy heading into the 2023-24 campaign and remain that way throughout the 82-game haul. That said, Middleton's fantasy stock is lower than it's been in recent memory, and it could decline even more if he's not available for Milwaukee to begin the regular season.
