Nikola Mirotic (calf) to make Bucks debut Thursday, minutes will be monitored
Milwaukee Bucks forward Nikola Mirotic (right calf strain) is available to make his team debut on Thursday versus the Boston Celtics.
What It Means:
Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer said Mirotic's minutes will be managed as he is eased into the rotation. Mirotic hasn't played since January 23. He'll likely take minutes away from Ersan Ilyasova right out the gates.
numberFire’s models expect Mirotic to play 19.7 minutes and score 21.3 FanDuel points on Thursday, at a cost of $5,500.
