Wright is questionable for Saturday's game against the Warriors due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
While Wright is iffy to suit up against Golden State, he hasn't been a regular member of the rotation since landing in New York. Miles McBride should dominate the minutes at point guard for the Knicks on Saturday in Jalen Brunson's (ankle) stead.

The Bucks traded Wright and cash considerations to the Knicks on Wednesday for Jericho Sims as part of a deal that also landed Kyle Kuzma in Milwaukee and Khris Middleon (ankles) in Washington, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
After signing with the Bucks this offseason, Wright appeared in merely 26 games for Milwaukee and averaged just 2.5 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists across 15.6 minutes. He'll have a tough time earning minutes with the Knicks considering they have Cameron Payne, Miles McBride and Tyler Kolek.

Wright closed Monday's 112-91 victory over the Bulls with nine points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals across 26 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
This was an encouraging display for Wright, who had played just 12.7 minutes per game over his prior seven games for the Bucks. The 32-year-old guard is shooting a career-low 31.3 percent from the floor covering 21 appearances this season, so even though he notched a season-high nine points off the bench Monday, Wright doesn't appear to be the most attractive streaming option for fantasy managers in Damian Lillard's (illness) short-term absence.

Wright is not in the Bucks' starting lineup for Monday's game against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Wright has started in each of the Bucks' last two games, but with Damian Lillard clearing concussion protocols, the former will retreat to the bench. In his last start Saturday against the Hornets, Wright finished with seven points, six assists, three rebounds, three blocks and one steal over 33 minutes.

Wright is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Wright will get the nod at point guard with Damian Lillard (concussion) and Ryan Rollins (shoulder) sidelined for this contest. Wright will combine with AJ Green to handle the point guard duties. This will be the first start of the season for the 10-year veteran.

Wright (coach's decision) didn't receive any playing time in Friday's 116-94 loss to the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
For the second game in a row, Wright found himself outside of head coach Doc Rivers' rotation after he had previously appeared in each of Milwaukee's first seven contests of the season. However, Wright struggled to make much of an impact on the second unit, averaging just 2.1 points and 0.9 assists while shooting 42.9 percent from the floor across 13.0 minutes. AJ Green had first begun cutting into Wright's playing time a few games ago, but Rivers confirmed after Friday's contest that two-way player Ryan Rollins will also get more opportunities than Wright moving forward, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com.

Wright (shoulder) logged 12 minutes during Monday's 111-107 preseason win over the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Wright missed Thursday's preseason game due to a bruised right shoulder, but he received the green light to play in Monday's exhibition. The Utah product didn't make much of an impact, as he was unable to record a single stat during his time on the court.

Wright didn't play in Thursday's preseason loss against the Lakers due to a right shoulder contusion, head coach Doc Rivers told Eric Nehm of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Rivers stated that Wright isn't expected to miss much time, but it seems he doesn't have a timetable for his return. The injury occurred during Wednesday's practice when Wright was hit with a hard screen, and it's unclear if he'll recover in time to suit up for the Bucks' next preseason game against the Bulls on Monday.

Wright and the Bucks agreed to a one-year, $3.3 million contract Monday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
EDGE Analysis
With this move, the Bucks have secured one of the top backup point guards on the open market. Wright will provide some relief minutes behind Damian Lillard, but the former is also capable of playing shooting guard as well. Wright's playmaking and defensive ability will boost Milwaukee's backcourt.

Wright went to the locker room in the first quarter of Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics after taking an elbow to the face. However, he'll be available to return after receiving stitches, the Heat announced.
EDGE Analysis
Wright was elbowed in the chin as Jaylen Brown went up for a shot and ended up going back to the locker room after the play. He'll have stitches put on the inside of his lower lip/chin and will then return to the contest. Patty Mills and Duncan Robinson should see more minutes while Wright is absent.
