Bucks' Khris Middleton: Muted performance

Middleton posted nine points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 27 minutes during Sunday's 136-100 loss to the Nuggets. He also had three turnovers.

Middleton was solid with healthy facilitating but an uncharacteristically low-volume shooting load. It was an underwhelming performance in a primetime showdown. Middleton next faces Washington on Tuesday. He's averaged 21.0 points per game against the Wizards across 22 prior matchups.
