Bucks' Taurean Prince: Headed for extended absence
Taurean Prince is expected to miss a "significant period of time" after he was diagnosed Monday with a herniated disc in his neck, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.Before missing Milwaukee's last two games due to the injury, Prince had been a key bench player for the Milwaukee Bucks, averaging 6.1 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.5 three-pointers and 1.0 assists in 21.0 minutes over his first eight appearances of the season. A clearer timeline for Prince's return should be established once he's able to resume on-court work, but he can be considered as week-to-week for now. His absence likely won't have many fantasy implications, though it could open up a few extra minutes for reserves such as Kyle Kuzma, Bobby Portis, Amir Coffey and Cole Anthony.

Prince is typically a low-usage player who can chip in with some points, three-pointers, rebounds and steals, but his fantasy appeal is likely to be limited to very deep leagues in his new role.
