Bucks' Gary Trent: Available Tuesday
Rotowire
Coach Doc Rivers said that Trent (back) is available to play in Tuesday's game against the Raptors, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Trent will return to game action after missing the Bucks' last two games due to back spasms. The 25-year-old was benched in favor of Andre Jackson before his two-game absence, and Trent will likely continue to come off the bench until he can earn his spot back after a disastrous start to the 2024-25 campaign. Through eight regular-season outings, the guard has averaged 7.3 points across 26.9 minutes per game while shooting 29.5 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from deep.

Rotowire
Trent (back) is out for Friday's game against the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Trent was limited to just eight minutes off the bench in Thursday's win over the Jazz, and while it's unclear if that was due to the back spasms he's dealing with, he's now set to miss his first game of the campaign. Andre Jackson will remain in the starting lineup due to Trent being sidelined.

Rotowire
Trent logged four points (1-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes during Monday's 116-114 loss to Cleveland.
This was a nightmare showing for Trent as the Bucks dropped to 1-6 on the season.

In seven appearances for his new team, Trent is shooting a mere 28.8 percent from the field and 23.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Rotowire
Trent (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Bulls, Will Gottlieb of AllCHGO.com reports.

Bucks' Gary Trent: Scores 12 points Thursday
Rotowire
Trent posted 12 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and an assist across 22 minutes in Thursday's 109-84 preseason loss to the Mavericks.
Trent was the only regular starter who suited up for the Bucks in this game. While he led the team in scoring, Milwaukee's overall performance was subpar -- though that can be expected, especially when seeing the lineup the coaching staff decided to start. Trent will open the 2024-25 season as the Bucks' starting shooting guard and provide another much-needed three-point threat alongside Damian Lillard.

Bucks' Gary Trent: Scores 10 points Monday
Rotowire
Trent finished with 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt), two rebounds and two steals across 26 minutes in Monday's 111-107 preseason win over the Bulls.
Trent was one of four Bucks starters who scored in double digits Monday, and the sharpshooter continues to strengthen his position as a starter for Milwaukee once the regular season starts Oct. 23 against the 76ers. He'll provide some much-needed spacing on offense, something the Bucks have lacked in recent years.
Trent (elbow) will play in Thursday's preseason game against the Lakers, coach Doc Rivers told Jackson Gross of SBNation.
Trent is dealing with an elbow injury, and while he missed practice Tuesday, he was expected to be fine, so his presence in the game against the Lakers strengthens that notion. Trent is expected to be the Bucks' starting shooting guard in the preseason opener against the 76ers on Oct. 23.

Trent has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's preseason game against the Pistons due to left elbow hyperextension injury, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Trent injured his elbow while trying to get around a screen from Jalen Duren, and the former left for the locker room shortly after. Trent registered five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and one rebound before leaving Sunday's game. The Bucks' next preseason game will take place Thursday against the Lakers.

Bucks' Gary Trent: Expected to start
Rotowire
Trent is expected to have a spot in Milwaukee's starting lineup to open the season, Evan Sidery of Forbes.com reports.
Trent has an inside track to be Milwaukee's starting shooting guard, and his offensive contributions will be critical if Khris Middleton (ankles) is limited to start the season. Trent will likely be asked to fill a similar role as Malik Beasley last year while coming with a better defensive reputation.
