Rotowire
Green (back) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against Portland, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Rotowire
Green totaled nine points (3-9 FG, 3-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 victory over Orlando.
Green continues to play meaningful minutes off the bench for Milwaukee, having now connected on multiple three-pointers in eight straight games. He has been able to carve out a relatively consistent role, sliding ahead of players like Pat Connaughton and Gary Trent. As long as his shot if falling, he should continue to play a key role on a team looking to surge after a slow start to the season.

Rotowire
Green finished Sunday's 113-107 loss to the Celtics with 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-6 3Pt), three rebounds and three steals across 27 minutes.
Green has carved out a significant role on the Bucks' bench due to his abilities as a three-point specialist, and he has shot 18-for-27 across the club's last four regular-season games. The sharpshooter tied Damian Lillard for the team high in steals, and Green also led Milwaukee in threes.

Bucks' AJ Green: Impresses in loss Monday
Rotowire
Green contributed 21 points (7-9 FG, 7-9 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Monday's 116-114 loss to the Cavaliers.
After receiving a DNP in Saturday's loss to Cleveland, Green exploded for the second-highest point total of his career in Monday's rematch. The sharpshooter has struggled to carve out a consistent role with Andre Jackson receiving significant playing time off the bench. However, the second unit has struggled with production, especially from beyond the arc, and Green's performance from outside Monday bodes well for his role moving forward. However, Green's elevated usage was likely directly correlated to Giannis Antetokounmpo (hip) missing his first game of the season.
