• Bucks' Delon Wright: Cut out of rotation

  16H ago • By RotoWire

  Wright (coach's decision) didn't receive any playing time in Friday's 116-94 loss to the Knicks. For the second game in a row, Wright found himself outside of head coach Doc Rivers' rotation after he had previously appeared in each of Milwaukee's first seven contests of the season. However, Wright struggled to make much of an impact on the second unit, averaging just 2.1 points and 0.9 assists while shooting 42.9 percent from the floor across 13.0 minutes. AJ Green had first begun cutting into Wright's playing time a few games ago, but Rivers confirmed after Friday's contest that two-way player Ryan Rollins will also get more opportunities than Wright moving forward, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com.

  Wright didn't play in Thursday's preseason loss against the Lakers due to a right shoulder contusion, coach Doc Rivers told Eric Nehm of The Athletic. Rivers stated that Wright isn't expected to miss much time, but the point guard doesn't have a return timetable yet. The injury occurred during Wednesday's practice when Wright was hit with a hard screen, and it's unclear if he'll recover in time to suit up for the Bucks' next preseason game against the Bulls on Monday.

  Wright and the Bucks agreed to a one-year, $3.3 million contract Monday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports. With this move, the Bucks have secured one of the top backup point guards on the open market. Wright will provide some relief minutes behind Damian Lillard, but the former is also capable of playing shooting guard as well. Wright's playmaking and defensive ability will boost Milwaukee's backcourt.

  Wright went to the locker room in the first quarter of Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics after taking an elbow to the face. However, he'll be available to return after receiving stitches, the Heat announced. Wright was elbowed in the chin as Jaylen Brown went up for a shot and ended up going back to the locker room after the play. He'll have stitches put on the inside of his lower lip/chin and will then return to the contest. Patty Mills and Duncan Robinson should see more minutes while Wright is absent.
