Augustin recorded five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three assists and one rebound during Monday's win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin wasn't a factor in this one, as the veteran logged just 13 minutes off the bench and finished as a minus-two in point differential. Since returning to a bench role, Augustin is averaging 6.3 points and 2.3 assists over the past three games.

Augustin is in the starting five for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin has started his last five appearances in place of Jrue Holiday, though he did miss one game (Feb. 25 vs. the Pelicans) for personal reason. He's only managed double-digit points in two of those five starts, however.

Augustin contributed seven points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists and one rebound in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 128-97 loss to Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin continues to start for the Bucks, but that has certainly not made him a fantasy darling by any means. Jrue Holiday likely is going to replace him in the starting lineup at some point, and, when that happens, his fantasy value will likely evaporate.

Augustin is starting Sunday's game against the Clippers, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old will rejoin Milwaukee's starting five after a one-game absence due to a personal matter. Jrue Holiday (COVID-19 protocols) was sidelined for the past 10 games but will come off the bench Sunday. Augustin should have a lesser role than the 28.3 minutes he averaged in his past three starts, and Holiday should rejoin the lineup once he gets back up to speed.

Augustin (personal) is available for Sunday's game against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
After a one-game absence due to a personal matter, Augustin will be back in the rotation Sunday. He's started in his past three appearances, but with Jrue Holiday (COVID-19 protocols) expected to return, Augustin will likely come off the bench and see his workload reduced.

Augustin (personal) is ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin will miss Thursday's contest due to personal family reasons. His next chance to play will be Sunday versus the Clippers. With Jrue Holiday (COVID-19 protocols) also out, Bryn Forbes could end up seeing a sharply expanded role.

Coach Mike Budenholzer said that Augustin (personal) is "very unlikely" for Thursday's game against the Pelicans, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Budenholzer's phrasing makes it seem like Augustin being ruled out for Thursday's game is merely a matter of time. The veteran will evidently be absent due to "a good thing," namely personal family reasons. He's been averaging 19.1 minutes per game this season.

Augustin contributed four points (2-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt), five assists, two steals and one rebound in the Bucks' 128-115 victory over the Kings on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin got his second-straight start with Jrue Holiday (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) out of the lineup for the eighth-straight game. Bryn Forbes had been starting for Holiday, but after a five-game losing streak, the Bucks' turned to Augustin on Friday, and then again Sunday. The veteran guard really struggled to get shots to fall, failing to make a three after making three triples in back-to-back games prior. Augustin provides the Bucks with another playmaker when on the floor and should collect a decent amount of assists when given the opportunity. Look for Augustin to also shoot the ball better next time out as he is shooting 35.5 percent from distance this season.

Augustin finished with 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt) five assists, two rebounds and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 98-85 victory over the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin shifted into the starting lineup and came away with a serviceable fantasy line. While this was nice for those who may have streamed him in, the long-term aspect is basically non-existent. Augustin can be a sneaky source of assists and threes and so if we get word that he is going to be given another start, perhaps he emerges as a potential streaming candidate once again.

Augustin will draw the start in Friday's game against the Thunder, freelance basketball reporter Kane Pitman replace.
EDGE Analysis
Augustin will replace Bryn Forbes in the starting lineup, as the Bucks look to switch things up in the backcourt. The start will mark his first of the season.
