Lopez recorded 13 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists and five blocks across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 122-93 win over the Magic.
The five rejections were Lopez's best performance at the rim since Nov. 13, and he fell one short of the season-high six he collected Opening Night against the Sixers. The veteran center has blocked multiple shots in eight of the last 15 games, averaging 14.4 points, 4.3 boards, 2.1 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.6 blocks over that stretch while shooting 52.2 percent from the floor.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Shines from long range
Rotowire
Lopez notched 22 points (8-17 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 121-105 victory over the Spurs.
The Spurs couldn't find a way to slow Lopez down, and the big man tied his season-high mark for threes made in a single game. The veteran reached the 20-point mark for the seventh time this season, and it's becoming easier to trust him on a game-to-game basis, as he's reached that tally four times since Christmas.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Rough night Saturday
Rotowire
Lopez recorded five points (2-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Saturday's 105-102 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Lopez was limited to under 25 minutes for the third straight game, continuing what has been an underwhelming season. Although he has strung together a few decent performances across the course of the first 33 games, he has also had his fair share of disappointment. In 31.8 minutes per game, Lopez is averaging 12.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.9 blocks and 1.8 three-pointers.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Swats three shots against Chicago
Rotowire
Lopez provided 22 points (9-22 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and three blocks in 38 minutes during Saturday's 116-111 loss to the Bulls.
Lopez led both teams with three blocks Saturday and finished as the Bucks' second-leading scorer behind Damian Lillard (29). Lopez has now scored at least 20 points in three straight games, and the veteran center has taken on a larger role on offense due to the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo (illness). Over his last six games, Lopez has averaged 16.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.3 blocks over 33.3 minutes per game.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Fills stat sheet despite loss
Rotowire
Lopez logged 20 points (8-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals across 34 minutes during Thursday's 111-105 loss to Brooklyn.
Lopez was remarkably efficient as a scoring option, going 4-for-5 from deep and missing just four of his 12 shots en route to his second consecutive outing with at least 20 points, and his fifth straight game with double-digit points. As good as he was offensively, the veteran big man found a way to make an impact on both ends of the court and managed to record at least two tallies in each of the six major categories. During that five-game stretch, Lopez is averaging 16.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.4 steals and 1.2 blocks per contest.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Scores efficient 21 points in win
Rotowire
Lopez ended with 21 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 36 minutes during Monday's 112-91 victory over the Bulls.
Lopez matched teammate Khris Middleton with a game-high 21 points during an efficient shooting display Monday, but the former wasn't a particularly active presence on the boards or the defensive end. Lopez had scored in single digits in all of his first five games of December, but he's gotten back in double figures in each of his past four outings, a period in which he's averaging 14.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.8 blocks and 2.5 three-pointers. The veteran big man's shooting can be streaky, and his role on offense can fluctuate when Milwaukee's roster is fully healthy, but Lopez should remain a steady force when it comes to threes and swats while locked into a starting role at center for the Bucks.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Decent numbers in blowout
Rotowire
Lopez recorded 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 24 minutes during Friday's 124-101 loss to the Cavaliers.
The Bucks looked overmatched Friday, and while Giannis Antetokounmpo carried the offense almost on his own, Lopez posted decent numbers -- at least from an efficiency perspective. That said, it's hard to rely Lopez as a scoring weapon. He has reached double-digit points in just two of his seven games in December, averaging 7.3 points per game in that span.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Nearly double-doubles
Rotowire
Lopez closed Tuesday's 97-81 victory over Oklahoma City with 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 37 minutes.
Lopez finished one rebound shy of what would've been his second double-double of the campaign. Milwaukee's starting center has been very consistent this season and is on pace to return top-60 value in nine-category formats for his shot-blocking prowess and three-point shooting.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Scores three points
Rotowire
Lopez recorded three points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and three rebounds in 26 minutes during Sunday's 118-113 win over the Nets.
Lopez was a non-factor for most of the night, while Bobby Portis erupted for 23 points off the bench. Despite this dud, Lopez has been pretty reliable for most of the season, as he's on pace to post top-50 value in nine-category formats for his steady supply of three-pointers (1.8) and blocks (2.2).

Rotowire
Lopez closed Saturday's 124-114 win over the Wizards with 18 points (7-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt), three assists and three blocks over 35 minutes.
Lopez was the Bucks' third-best scorer in this win, sitting behind Damian Lillard's 25-point performance and Giannis Antetokounmpo's 42-point masterpiece. Lopez has scored in double digits in six games in a row while hitting multiple threes five times during that stretch. He's getting it done on the defensive end as well, recording multiple blocks in all but one game during the team's six-game winning stretch.

The veteran center did what he does best, recording at least three blocks and three three-pointers in the same game for the fourth time in the last seven contests.

Lopez finished Wednesday's 122-106 win over the Bulls with 21 points (9-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 35 minutes.
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard thrived in this win for Milwaukee, but the impact Lopez made on both ends of the court can't go unnoticed, since he was a dominant presence throughout the contest. Lopez has been trending in the right direction as a scorer after reaching the 20-point mark in three of his last four contests.

Lopez recorded his first double-double of the season while racking up a game-high 27 points. The big man was elite on the defensive end and contributed seven steals-plus-blocks, tying Tari Eason for the game-best mark. Lopez also logged five three-pointers for the second time in his last three games, and he put in a stellar performance after posting only five points on 2-for-7 shooting in Saturday's loss to the Hornets.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Returns Monday
Rotowire
Lopez (back) checked back into Monday's game against the Rockets with 5:24 remaining in the second quarter, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
The big man went back to the locker room early in the second quarter after blocking an Amen Thompson dunk, though Lopez hit the deck hard. However, the veteran center is back, and he should be able to shoulder his normal workload the rest of the way.

Rotowire
Lopez racked up 29 points (9-17 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds, five blocks and three steals across 40 minutes during Wednesday's 127-120 overtime win over the Pistons.
Lopez enjoyed his best game of the 2024-25 campaign so far, as his efficient shooting helped him record a season-high 29 points. The veteran big man had yet to score above 15 points in a game before Wednesday's win. Lopez has somewhat struggled with his efficiency this year, posting 40.9/30.8/75.0 shooting splits across his first 12 appearances.

Bucks' Brook Lopez: Shooting woes from deep in loss
Rotowire
Lopez produced 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt), six rebounds, four steals and two blocks across 36 minutes during Monday's 116-114 loss to the Cavaliers.
Lopez stuffed the stat sheet on the defensive end while grabbing six steals-plus-blocks for the third time this season. However, the big man struggled from three-point range once again, and he has shot only 28.2 percent from deep while attempting 5.6 triples per game. Lopez's defensive ability has helped his fantasy value, though his struggles with efficiency thus far have put a damper on his defensive production. Through seven regular-season outings, the 36-year-old has averaged 10.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.4 blocks, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals across 31.4 minutes per game.

Lopez supplied 12 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 24 minutes during Thursday's 122-99 loss to the Grizzlies.
Lopez led the Bucks in three-point makes Thursday as Milwaukee shot just 9-for-42 from beyond the arc, and he managed to finish with the second-most points on the team behind Giannis Antetokounmpo (37). Lopez has scored in double digits in four of the first five games of the regular season, though he isn't expected to see a ton of volume on offense while playing alongside Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.
