• Bucks' Jericho Sims: Undergoes thumb surgery

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  The Bucks announced that Sims underwent surgery Monday to repair a torn ligament in his right thumb. Sims is expected to be sidelined for approximately four weeks and is likely to return during the playoffs. Sims initially injured his thumb in Saturday's win over the Pacers, but he proceeded to play through the issue Sunday, logging 12 minutes in a loss to the Thunder. However, with the Bucks determining that Sims would require surgery to address the matter, he'll now be sidelined for the remainder of the regular season. By the time Sims is fully healthy, he'll likely be outside of the rotation, as Milwaukee will get backup center Bobby Portis back from his 25-game suspension April 8.

Sims is working through a right thumb sprain, and head coach Doc Rivers told reporters Sunday that the injury is severe enough that surgery is considered a possibility, per Justin Garcia of Locked on Bucks. Sims will continue to play for now, but how his thumb responds Sunday will be a factor on whether he undergoes a procedure or continues to play through the injury.

  Sims chipped in four points (2-2 FG), 11 rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Thursday's 126-106 win over the Lakers. This game was over in a hurry, allowing Sims to enjoy some garbage time to close this game out. As long as Brook Lopez is healthy, there's not much to like about Sims' fantasy appeal -- he's averaging just 15.1 minutes over his last 10 outings.
