Khris Middleton

Trailing by as many as 21 points is never ideal, but having a healthy Khris Middleton to utilize as a bench weapon sure is. Starring in a new role designed to keep a sore knee fresh after missing 18 games, Middleton helps the Milwaukee Bucks rally from a huge deficit at home against the LA Clippers, dribbling with purpose up the court before burying a pull-up triple to get his team within two points in the fourth quarter. Middleton played a major role in the comeback victory, scoring 16 points while grabbing seven rebounds and dishing out two assists in 20 productive minutes as the Bucks prevailed 106-105 on February 2, 2023.
