Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers shared that Khris Middleton's minutes restriction is still in place and there is no set timeline for when it will be lifted. Middleton recently played a season-high 30 minutes against the Indiana Pacers.
Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers recently revealed when he expected to lift the minutes restriction on former three-time All-Star starting small forward Khris Middleton , who's still recovering from offseason surgeries to both his ankles.
. "He's not there yet, so we're just going to keep working slowly until they tell us, 'You can just play him.' That hasn't happened. That doesn't seem like it's around the corner." The 33-year-old didn't play more than 24 minutes in his first seven games back in the lineup this season for the 17-14 Bucks. He didn't even start for his first five contests back in action, instead backing up his own backup, 3-and-D wing Taurean Prince. In his 10 healthy games for Milwaukee, Middleton is averaging 13.8 points on .449/.463/.852 shooting splits, 5.5 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 0.9 steals across 23.6 minutes a night.
