Doubtful for Wednesday
This is hardly a surprise, as Middleton didn't make a single preseason appearance. He also hasn't been cleared for 5-on-5 with contact yet, and he's been limited in recent practices. Charania adds that the Bucks are cautiously progressing the veteran wing, but his timetable remains murky at best. In his absence, Taurean Prince is a candidate to fill in with the starters.

Iffy for Opening Night
Middleton continues to work his way back from injuries in both ankles and was forced to miss the entire preseason. While there is optimism that the 33-year-old forward will be good to go for Opening Night, he will likely have to go through a full practice first.

Signs two-way deal
Robbins was competing with Anzejs Pasecniks for the final depth center position on the Bucks' roster and ultimately won. The big man spent last season with the Birmingham Squadron in the G League, but he will now start the 2024-25 campaign on the Bucks' roster. He will be available to provide depth in Milwaukee's frontcourt if needed.

Fails to make final roster
Pasecniks was competing with Liam Robbins for the final depth center position on the Bucks' roster. The big man will still be a candidate to land on Milwaukee's G League affiliate, the Oshkosh Herd. His last action in the NBA came with the Wizards during the 2020-21 season.

Grabs 10 rebounds in big loss
The 33rd overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft had some notable moments and looked active on the glass, pacing the team in that category. Don't expect him to carve a regular rotation role once the 2024-25 regular season rolls around, though, and it wouldn't be surprising if he starts the season in the G League instead of being part of the NBA roster.
