Bucks' Paris Bass: Playing in Summer League with Bucks
Rotowire
Bass is set to play for the Bucks during the NBA's Summer League beginning in July, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
Bass spent the 2022-23 campaign with the Bucks' G League affiliate and will aim to impress the brass during Summer League play. He has just two career NBA games under his belt with Phoenix during the 2021-22 season, and it's highly unlikely he'll make any meaningful fantasy contributions next year, either.

Bass logged more than 40 points for the first time in his G League career.

Paris Bass: Excellent off bench
Rotowire
Bass logged 34 points (14-22 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 12 rebounds, three blocks and one assist across 32 minutes during the Herd's 115-112 win over Greensboro on Friday.
Elijah Hughes was added to Wisconsin's starting lineup in place of Bass. Despite being benched, the Herd used him quite a bit due to their short depth. That was enough to fuel Bass, who recorded his best log of the G League season by tallying 34 points and 12 rebounds.

Paris Bass: Double-double off bench
Rotowire
Bass logged 21 points (9-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes during the Herd's 134-130 loss Monday at Motor City.
Bass was inserted into the Herd's starting lineup while Sandro Mamukelashvili was out for some time during January. But now that he is available, Bass will continue to play off the bench. That may not stop him from being a valuable option, as the Herd's bench unit lacks scoring and rebounding power despite the team's strong starters.

Paris Bass: Records 20-point double-double
Rotowire
Bass logged 25 points (9-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 13 rebounds, six assists, three steals and one block across 34 minutes during the Herd's 153-132 loss at Delaware on Monday.
Bass has a double-double across both of his last two games. Bass continues adapting well to his temporary role, which he will continue having while Sandro Mamukelashvili is with the Milwaukee Bucks and Iverson Molinar (undisclosed) remain unavailable.

Paris Bass: Records double-double
Rotowire
Bass logged 10 points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, three steals and one assist across 33 minutes during Wisconsin's 115-96 loss to the Charge on Friday.
After playing off the Herd's bench, Bass took advantage of his recent start Friday. As a starter, he figures to be heavily involved in the scoring column and on the boards. However, when Sandro Mamukelashvili (two-way) and Iverson Molinar (rest) are available, Bass' numbers will likely drop if he moves to the bench.
