Daniels is back after sitting out Thursday’s win over the Nets. Interestingly, the Hawks started Corey Kispert in Daniels’ place, with the veteran forward playing 20 minutes. Daniels’ return bumps Kispert to the bench.

Kuminga, who returned to action on Thursday after a three-game absence, will not play on Saturday for injury management reasons. Mouhamed Gueye should pick up rotation minutes off the bench, but there’s no need to add him in redraft leagues.

While Porter recently returned from right knee synovitis, Dieng is dealing with an illness. Ryan Rollins started for KPJ while he was sidelined and would return to the starting five. If Dieng can’t play, AJ Green could make a spot start.

Milwaukee closes the week with a back-to-back, making it possible that fantasy managers get one game out of Antetokounmpo instead of two. If he plays the Hawks on Saturday, Giannis likely won’t play the Pacers on Sunday. He sat out the second game of Milwaukee’s most recent back-to-back, a loss to the Magic on March 8.

Following a one-game absence with a back injury, Portis was back playing his typical role off the bench. Though it wasn’t enough for the Bucks to get the win, he has his highest-scoring performance since Feb. 24 and shot at least 50 percent from the floor for a ninth straight game. Portis is a solid reserve that ranks inside the top-100 in nine-category leagues over the past two weeks. However, his limited minutes will continue to cap his upside.

With Kevin Porter Jr. (knee) back in the lineup, Rollins returned to playing a role off the bench. However, he still played 33 minutes to KPJ’s 27 and was far more productive. Rollins has been one of the most improved players in the NBA this season, and as long as he is playing big minutes, he’ll continue to be a strong fantasy asset. However, he may be limited if he continues to come off the bench.

Antetokounmpo has been available for five of the Bucks’ last six games, but this was his best offensive performance. In fact, this was his highest-scoring performance since Jan. 11, which was over two months prior to this game. Giannis hasn’t been quite as productive as he typically is, most notably a lack of production on the glass. He’ll look to build on this scoring performance in Saturday’s game in Atlanta.

Triple-doubles have eluded Johnson this month, but this was another near miss for him. Still, he was able to stuff the stat sheet once again in another win for Atlanta. They currently own the longest winning streak in the NBA at eight games, though it’s worth noting they’ve only played on away game during this streak. Still, Johnson has been fantastic, and he’ll look to stay hot against the Bucks on Saturday to wrap up the week.

Following a three-game absence with a knee injury, Kuminga returned to the lineup, and while Atlanta’s winning streak stayed alive, he wasn’t as productive as his previous appearances for Atlanta. He averaged 21.3 points across his first three games for the Hawks, but his only two points in this game came at the free throw line. It was good to see Kuminga log 19 minutes in his first game back, but it’s clear he won’t be a 20-point scorer consistently.

With Dyson Daniels (toe) sidelined, Corey Kispert got the starting nod, but it was Risacher that saw the biggest bump in minutes. This ended up being his highest-scoring outing since early January, which was the game before he missed three weeks with a knee injury. Risacher has struggled this year, but hopefully he will build on this performance and get back on track in the coming weeks.

Dieng only played 14 minutes, and the only stats he contributed were a turnover and two fouls. Clearly, the illness was bothering him. Ryan Rollins should take on extra minutes down the stretch with Dieng sidelined.

Kispert will get the starting nod in place of Dyson Daniels (toe), who is sidelined for this game. Kispert started six games for Atlanta in January but has come off the bench since then. He can provide some three-pointers in extra minutes, but that isn’t guaranteed. He is a low-upside streaming option.

Daniels will miss a game for the first time since before the All-Star break, opening up a spot in the starting unit.

Portis did not play in Tuesday’s loss to the Suns, which led the Bucks to rely even more on starters Giannis Antetokounmpo and Myles Turner. That likely remains the case if Portis can’t play against the Heat, and they’re already rostered in most, if not all, fantasy leagues.

Atlanta won a seventh straight game in this one, and during that stretch, Daniels has averaged 11.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 2.6 steals and 0.6 turnovers per game while shooting 59.4 percent from the floor. He has been incredible and a big reason why Atlanta has had recent success. He has his obvious limitations, but Daniels has been producing at an incredibly high level as of late regardless.

NAW has been fantastic all season, but he did hit a bit of a rough patch in February. However, he has gotten back on track recently. Over his last three games, he has averaged 25.3 points and 4.7 triples per game while shooting 60.4 percent from the floor, and this was his highest-scoring outing since January. NAW will look to stay hot against the Nets on Thursday.

Johnson had a fewer rough performances by his lofty standards since the All-Star break, but he has gotten back on track recently. They only have two more games this week, but he will continue to fill it up in the box score every night. The Hawks have won seven games in a row and will look to keep that up against the Nets on Thursday, which is another favorable matchup for Johnson.

To say that Turner needed a night like Tuesday would be an understatement. Over his last five games entering the matchup with the Suns, the Bucks’ center averaged 6.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.8 steals, 1.2 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers in 20.6 minutes, shooting 31.4 percent from the field. Turner’s 22 points were the most in a game for him since January 27, when he dropped 31 on the 76ers. Simply put, nights like Tuesday have been few and far between for Turner, which is not what the Bucks expected when they signed him in free agency.

Before Tuesday, it had been just over a month since Kuzma last surpassed 20 points in a game, much less 30. He dropped his third 30-point game of the season on Tuesday, with the 33 points being a season-high. The numbers in the categories outside of points and three pointers were a bit limited, but Kuzma still managed to record a complete stat line. The Bucks play three more games in Week 20, starting with the Heat on Thursday.

Back in the lineup after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Magic, Antetokounmpo logged 30 minutes against the Suns. This was the first time he’s played at least 30 minutes since returning from his second calf strain of the season, so the limit is clearly increasing. That’s good news for fantasy managers, as many are counting on Giannis to be his usual dominant self during the fantasy playoff weeks.

Saturday’s win over the 76ers was a quieter performance for Okongwu, but he was able to get back on track in this one. Over his last seven games, he has five double-doubles and has been able to contribute plenty of steals and blocks during that stretch. He hasn’t been a strong rebounder this season, but he has been more impactful on the glass in recent weeks, leading to elite fantasy production.

Prince, who underwent surgery in November to address a herniated disk in his neck, is good to go for Tuesday’s game. While Rivers did not say anything about potential minutes, the veteran wing may not take on a full workload due to the time he’s missed.

Thomas had a nice game with 17 points and six assists in 20 minutes off the bench against the Magic on Sunday. Still, the 24-year-old shooting guard’s scoring has been sporadic since he was acquired by the Bucks. Thomas has scored at least 10 points in just three of his last eight games after a hot start with his new team. More consistent minutes would go a long way towards helping him regain value.

Portis played 28 minutes with the Bucks losing by 39. The 31-year-old power forward had a nice game with 18 points and 10 rebounds, but it wasn’t enough to keep the Bucks within striking distance of the Magic. Portis was on fire from behind the three-point line making 4-of-5 attempts. He remains one of the most important bench players in the league.
