The Milwaukee Bucks held a scrimmage Wednesday morning before heading to Dallas for their preseason finale Thursday evening at the American Airlines Center, but Khris Middleton did not participate and will not play against the Mavericks.

Forward Khris Middleton played a substantial role in the Milwaukee Bucks' 2021 title but has taken a hit in production in the following years due to injuries. Middleton appeared in just 55 games last season while playing in 33 the year prior.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton is unlikely to play during the Bucks' second-last preseason game against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. Middleton underwent arthroscopic surgeries on both of his ankles during the offseason and is still working his way back from those procedures.
