Milwaukee Bucks DFS Spin
Khris Middleton (knee) is considered doubtful to take the floor Wednesday versus the Cavaliers. Middleton appears set for his third consecutive absence while dealing with right knee soreness. He has appeared in just seven games for the Bucks this season while dealing with different injuries, leaving fantasy owners without much production thus far. The team should provide an official ruling on his status Wednesday, but things aren’t looking great at this point. Assuming he can’t go, rookie MarJon Beauchamp could line up for another start.
Cleveland Cavs DFS Spin
Lamar Stevens (knee) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday’s matchup against the Bucks. Stevens will likely miss a third straight contest due to a knee injury. If Stevens remains out, Isaac Okoro is expected to draw another start, while Cedi Osman and Caris LeVert would also be candidates for increased roles again.
