The Milwaukee Bucks announced forward Taurean Prince (ankle) won't play Friday against the Washington Wizards. Prince was considered probable earlier in the day, but he's since been scratched due to a left ankle sprain. Friday's contest will be the first he's missed, as he's played in all 54 Milwaukee games this season. With the 30-year-old veteran on the shelf this evening, Gary Trent and Kyle Kuzma will be in line for expanded roles in the Bucks rotation.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (knee) is good to go for Sunday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. Milwaukee has upgraded Prince from probable to available. The 30-year-old boasts a proud record of having played in every game this campaign. With Bobby Portis (personal) unavailable, Prince has recently taken on a larger role in the rotation, logging 30-plus minutes in three of the past four games. He has provided low-tier fantasy value during that stretch, averaging 9.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.0 steals.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (illness) will play against Boston on Friday. He was initially iffy for the contest due to an illness. Prince has recently had a productive spell with the Bucks, scoring in double figures five times in the past six games. He's shot an amazing 16-for-23 from behind the three-point line during the stretch. However, Boston gives up the third-fewest three-point attempts in the league, so it might be difficult for Prince to keep his hot shooting spell going.
Taurean Prince Listed As Probable For Friday Night In Boston
Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (quad) is listed as probable for Friday night's matchup against the Boston Celtics. Prince hasn't missed a game all season and logged his normal minutes on Wednesday, when he showed up on the injury report as well, so it doesn't appear that this injury is hampering him much. A bigger concern for fantasy managers, in regards to Prince's performance, is the return of Khris Middleton on Friday. Prince has brought fantasy value through making threes, hitting them at a league-leading 55.6% clip. However, it's been on generally low volume. If Middleton takes away any chances from three then it could impact Prince's numbers.
Taurean Prince Probable For Tuesday Night Against Detroit
Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (quad) is listed as probable for Tuesday night's game against the Detroit Pistons. Prince is dealing with a right quad contusion but it isn't hindering his abilities enough to hold him out. The 30-year-old is leading the league in three-point percentage, hitting threes at a 54.2% clip though at a fairly limited volume. He went three-for-eight against Detroit in their last meeting, showing the potential for a higher ceiling against the Pistons. He also grabbed 10 rebounds in that game, well above his season average of 4.6 RPG. He makes an intriguing DFS option for Tuesday night that DFS players should consider.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (illness) is good to go for Tuesday's matchup against Miami. He was initially regarded as questionable for the game due to an illness. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) out, Prince might have to do a bit extra on Tuesday. The 30-year-old is shooting over 55 percent from deep this month and could see more success from behind the arc against a team that's allowed the opposition to nail 38.1 percent of three-point attempts.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Taurean Prince (illness) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's encounter with Miami. The veteran wing is dealing with an illness, which might keep Prince off the court for the first time this season. It's been a solid but unspectacular campaign for Prince, who averages 8.5 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.9 assists with 53.1 percent shooting from downtown. Bucks head coach Doc Rivers will be forced to tweak his starting lineup if Prince isn't ready to go on Tuesday. Gary Trent Jr. has regained momentum lately and might be one of the biggest beneficiaries of Prince's absence. At the same time, Bobby Portis always carries extra fantasy value if somebody is missing from Milwaukee's first unit.
According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, free-agent forward Taurean Prince plans to sign a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks. The 2016 No. 12 overall pick has bounced around the National Basketball Association before spending last season with the Lakers. He appeared in 78 games for Los Angeles, starting 49, averaging 8.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.5 assists. Prince might make some appearances in the starting lineup with the Bucks, so there may be streaming potential for fantasy managers at some point during the 2024-25 campaign.
Los Angeles Lakers forward Taurean Prince hopes to ink a new deal with the team. He signed a one-year, $4.5 million pact last offseason and wants to extend his stay in L.A. "My family, the quality of life in Los Angeles is something that myself and my family haven't had in probably three or four seasons," Prince told Lakers Nation. "So to stay here would be definitely number one. If not that, then I mean, wherever the dominoes fall and wherever it's best, that's where I'll be. But I for sure want to be a Laker, 100 percent." Despite starting 49 times in 78 appearances and averaging 27.0 minutes, Prince didn't do much that pops out on the box score in 2023-24. He averaged 8.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.5 assists, shooting 39.6 percent from three-point range.
Los Angeles Lakers forward Taurean Prince will move into the starting five ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. As expected, Prince will join the starting five with LeBron James (ankle) ruled out for this game. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried about James as this is likely more of a rest game than a serious issue. Regardless, Prince will draw the start and have increased fantasy value. He's normally good for about 10 points per game with a handful of rebounds. Fantasy managers should consider Prince a low-end streaming option for Tuesday's slate.
