Milwaukee Bucks point guard George Hill (abdomen) has been given the green light to get back into action for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics. Hill last suited up April 8 due to abdominal strain, one which is likely to keep his minutes total in check for the time being. The veteran is coming off a regular season in which he averaged just 6.2 points and 2.2 assists, his lowest marks in each category since his rookie campaign in 2008-09. Jrue Holiday will remain Milwaukee's primary ball-handler, although Hill's return could take a slight cut of Wesley Matthews, Grayson Allen, and Pat Connaughton's fantasy shine.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) is anticipated to suit up for the postseason battle against the Boston Celtics. The veteran hasn't played in nearly a month because of an abdominal strain. While the 36-year-old should get some action in Game 3, he's not expected to do much, although his presence could still negatively impact Jevon Carter's workload. However, neither man will likely produce enough to make a difference for DFS managers searching for value on Saturday.
Milwaukee Bucks point guard George Hill (abdomen) is "very close" to making his return to the court, according to Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer. On Thursday, Hill essentially went through a full practice. Following the practice session, Budenholzer said, "He pretty much did all of practice today, did some extra, some play group afterward. I think we just gotta see how he comes out of that & hopefully he's good. But he's very close." Hill has been out since the final weekend of the regular season due to an abdominal strain. His next chance to play will be in Saturday's Game 3 against the Boston Celtics.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) is out for the playoff showdown against Boston on Tuesday night. The 35-year-old has been dealing with an abdominal strain, causing him to miss the entire postseason series versus the Chicago Bulls and the second-round opener against the Celtics on Sunday. It's unknown how much longer Hill will be sidelined. However, it doesn't matter, especially since the veteran likely won't see much action if he is cleared to return anytime soon.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) won't suit up for the second-round series opener versus the Boston Celtics. The veteran didn't play during the first round against Chicago due to an abdominal strain, although had he been available, he may have gotten some work with Khris Middleton (knee) sidelined. Nonetheless, the Bucks will probably continue to rely on its starting unit for most of Game 1. Yet, Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton may get most of the minutes and opportunities to produce from off the bench on Sunday.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdominal) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's Game 5 against the Chicago Bulls. He is dealing with an abdominal strain and he has yet to play this postseason. Hill logged 23.2 minutes per game during the regular season and averaged 6.2 points and 2.2 assists per contest. Once he's back, we will likely see Jevon Carter's minutes take a big hit. He may even be phased out of the rotation completely.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdominal) still needs more time to recover. At this point, it's fair to assume Hill won't play at all during the first round. Head coach Mike Budenholzer mentioned that Hill is not day-to-day and is going to need some extra time to rest. Fantasy managers should expect Jevon Carter to continue playing additional minutes with Hill sidelined for the foreseeable future.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) won't play on Sunday against Chicago. The 35-year-old has yet to suit up during the postseason. However, even if Hill were available, it's unlikely he would have much of a role, even with Khris Middleton (knee) out of the equation.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) is out on Friday night. The veteran hasn't played at all during the postseason series with the Bulls, which is unfortunate considering Milwaukee will be without Khris Middleton for the foreseeable future. Nonetheless, even if Hill makes it back, he likely won't see enough minutes to make a difference for DFS managers, at least unless something happens to Grayson Allen, Pat Connaughton, or Jevon Carter moving forward.
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdominal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 2 matchup against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran guard will miss his third straight game due to an abdominal issue. His absence won't have a huge impact on the Bucks rotation. Jevon Carter saw 10 minutes in Game 1, so he'll probably play a similar role on Wednesday.
