Bucks' Cormac Ryan: Goes for 25 points vs. HOU
Rotowire
Ryan ended with 25 points (9-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 loss to the Rockets.
With most of Milwaukee's regulars taking a night off, Ryan provided a huge spark off the bench for a second straight appearance, as he had 13 points across 20 minutes in the loss to the Clippers on March 29. Ryan can be a decent scoring weapon as a reserve, but if that role doesn't change, his fantasy appeal will remain limited to being a streaming, matchup-based alternative in deep leagues.

Bucks' Cormac Ryan: Provides spark off bench
Rotowire
Ryan totaled 13 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 127-113 loss to the Clippers.
With Ryan Rollins (hip), Kevin Porter (knee), Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), Bobby Portis (wrist) and Myles Turner (knee) all sidelined, the Bucks were left with eight active players Sunday and summoned Ryan from the G League's Wisconsin Herd to soak up some playing time. The two-way player provided a scoring punch off the bench, but he isn't guaranteed to see meaningful burn once some or all of the injured players return.

The Bucks included Ryan on their training camp group initially, but the team is beginning to trim down their roster ahead of the regular season. The guard remains in play for a spot with the G League's Wisconsin Herd, and he averaged 12.3 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game across 37 appearances for the Oklahoma City Blue last year.
