After suffering a left thigh contusion following a collision with the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Terrance Ferguson, Milwaukee Bucks’ forward Khris Middleton was scheduled to miss three to four weeks of action through injury.
That news represented a significant blow to the Bucks early in the season, as even with their impressive depth, losing an All-Star caliber player remains a notable loss.
Through three games and just over a week without Middleton, the Bucks have every reason to feel positive about their 3-0 record in that stretch. Facing a favorable run in the schedule has certainly helped, but that doesn’t mean that there may not be potential for bumps on the road ahead without Middleton.
