Khris Middleton Fantasy Stats

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton was held out of Saturday's scrimmage as part of a planned ramp-up and is not dealing with an injury, according to The Athletic's Josh Robbins. The 35-year-old returned to Washington in July on a three-year, $17.6 million deal via sign-and-trade from Dallas. Middleton averaged 10.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 22.8 minutes across 63 games last season. He enters camp behind Anthony Davis at power forward while Washington continues developing AJ Dybantsa, Bilal Coulibaly, and Kyshawn George, leaving Middleton with limited fantasy upside.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton wants to have a significant role next season, not simply to be a locker room presence on a young team. "The more years you play, the more experience you have. That comes naturally," Middleton told Scott Eisberg of ABC News 4. "I just want to be myself... It's about guiding young guys, but being a basketball player myself. I'm still a basketball player, I'm not a coach yet. So, hopefully, I'll be playing and playing meaningful minutes and finding ways to impact the game still." In D.C., Middleton was limited to 24.3 minutes per game last season. He averaged 10.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.3 assists before finishing the campaign in Dallas. The Wizards brought Middleton back this offseason, but his role may shrink further on a much stronger roster.

Free-agent forward Khris Middleton has agreed to a three-year, $17.6 million deal with the Washington Wizards via sign-and-trade, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The 14-year veteran returns to Washington after finishing last season with Dallas, where his overall production dipped to 10.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game. Middleton still offers shooting, secondary playmaking, and championship experience, but his fantasy ceiling is no longer tied to a high-usage role. With Trae Young, Anthony Davis, and AJ Dybantsa shaping Washington's core, Middleton looks more like veteran wing depth than a reliable fantasy contributor.

Dallas Mavericks forward Khris Middleton (illness) won't suit up on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was a very late addition to the injury report due to illness. After a couple of big performances early in his Mavericks career, Middleton has posted fairly underwhelming averages of 11.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 22.3 minutes with the team. Fellow veteran Klay Thompson may log more action on Friday due to his absence.

Dallas Mavericks forward Khris Middleton (shoulder) will play Thursday against Sacramento after entering the night with a shoulder stinger. The veteran wing has averaged 14.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.2 three-pointers in 23.0 minutes across his last five games, but he remains a volatile fantasy option given fluctuating minutes and workload management risk. With Dallas shorthanded in the frontcourt, Middleton should see steady involvement, though his availability could trim opportunities for Klay Thompson and Caleb Martin on the wing. Middleton is more of a matchup-based play in standard leagues, while deeper formats can justify holding for scoring and triples.

Dallas Mavericks forward Khris Middleton (shoulder) didn't play in the second half of Tuesday's victory over the Brooklyn Nets. After colliding with Nets center Nicolas Claxton in the second quarter, Middleton was ruled out for the second half with a right shoulder stinger. The veteran forward finished with six points, five rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 12 minutes. It was an unfortunate blow for Middleton, who has been playing well lately. He entered Tuesday's game averaging 16.0 points and 4.8 rebounds across his last four appearances. Caleb Martin started the second half in Middleton's place but made little impact, tallying three points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal.

34-year-old small forward Khris Middleton is being dealt to the Dallas Mavericks as part of the larger Anthony Davis trade, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Now in the twilight of his career, Middleton won't be much more than a rotational piece behind Cooper Flagg, P.J. Washington, and Naji Marshall on his new team. Middleton averaged 10.3 points on 33% shooting from three-point land in 34 games (all starts) for the Wizards this season. AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham, Marvin Bagley III, two first-round picks, and three second-rounders will also be sent to Dallas for Davis, Jaden Hardy, D'Angelo Russell, and Dante Exum.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) won't play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday. Washington will be in action for a second consecutive night, and it's not surprising that Middleton will be held out of Friday's contest due to his right knee injury. With Middleton out, Will Riley could see an expanded role against the Lakers, though the 19-year-old hasn't been a very productive player during his rookie campaign. Justin Champagnie and Bub Carrington may get a chance to step up offensively without Middleton.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (foot) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Middleton will make his return on Tuesday after missing Saturday's contest due to left foot soreness. The return of Middleton should push Will Riley back to the bench after making his first start on Saturday. In January, Middleton is averaging 9.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in 23.7 minutes per game in nine contests. He has been playing well enough to be worth a look in deep formats as a streaming option for Tuesday's slate.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (foot) will miss Saturday's game against Charlotte as he continues to recover from a left foot injury, with Tuesday against Portland next on the schedule. His absence reshapes Washington's wing rotation and opens short-term fantasy opportunities. Justin Champagnie is the best bet to benefit after logging a start recently and averaging 9.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 1.4 steals over his last five games in 24.8 minutes. Will Riley could see added run, though his production has been inconsistent of late.
