4 years agoMilwaukee Bucks small forward Khris Middleton morphed into the team's No. 1 scoring option with Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) held out for Saturday's victory over the Cavaliers. Middleton has proven to be a consistent fantasy contributor even with Antetokounmpo on the floor, but he went for a game-high 27 points Saturday, shooting 10-for-16 from the field overall, including going 3-for-6 from long range. As has been his habit, Middleton packed the stat sheet with six assists and five rebounds, giving him another night of top-tier fantasy production. Antetokounmpo is likely to return for Monday's matchup with the Magic, which may detract DFS owners from Middleton's appeal, but season-long managers can continue to run the two-time All-Star out on a nightly basis with complete confidence.--Jesse Borek
