ANALYSIS: Middleton's unfortunate entry into the health and safety protocols is yet another hiccup for the Bucks in this early NBA season, as he joins key contributors in Jrue Holiday, Brook Lopez, and Donte DiVincenzo on the active list.

The Bucks can only hope for a swift and healthy recovery and that Giannis Antetokounmpo can shore things up in the meanwhile.
