Bucks' Khris Middleton: Scores 21 in win

Middleton tallied 21 points (7-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 37 minutes in Friday's 99-85 win over the Pacers.

Analysis:

Middleton has gradually been settling in as one of the focal points of Milwaukee's offense since making his season debut in early February. He achieved his highest usage thus far this season in Friday's game, logging 37 minutes on the floor. If you've been holding onto Middleton all year and he's still on your bench, it's time to move him up as the upward trend in usage should equal quality stat lines moving forward. As the Bucks try to make a run for the playoffs, Middleton's output will be a key indicator for their success.
