Khris Middleton is questionable to play on Tuesday due to left Achilles tightness

The Milwaukee Bucks have listed All-Star wingman Khris Middleton as questionable to play when they visit the Kaseya Center in Miami to battle the Miami Heat. The oft-injured Middleton did not finish the Bucks' win over the Washington Wizards last November 24 because of what the team termed "Achilles tightness."

No timeline

Bucks coach Adrian Griffin recently gave an update about Middleton, saying the two-guard does not have a timeline for a return.

"No timeline. Just day-to-day and see how he responds to treatment, but I think things are promising," Griffin shared with reporters.

On Monday, Middleton did not play in the Bucks' exciting come-from-behind win over the Portland Trail Blazers, although he was on the sidelines cheering on his teammates.

The Bucks have submitted their injury report for Tuesday's game vs. the Heat in Miami.

Khash is yet to regain his form

The veteran off-guard has yet to regain his All-Star form after he was limited to 33 games last season because of various injuries. This season has offered more of the same restrictions as Middleton tries to recover from an offseason knee procedure. The team has yet to clear Khris to play in back-to-back games, and he remains on a minutes restriction.

It remains to be seen how long this latest injury will keep Middleton out of action, but the Bucks still have high hopes for their perimeter sentinel. One thing the Bucks have going for them is they have already adjusted to playing without Khris.

"Any time you lose a big part of your team, it's an adjustment," Damian Lillard said.

"I think because of the way the season has gone early on with him being on a restriction, he's sat a few games; I think we're used to it. We're used to that hole being there and having to navigate those situations."
