Bledsoe (knee) is out for Monday's game against Denver, Matt Velazquez of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe was being considered doubtful for Monday's clash, so this development isn't a surprise. Pat Connaughton will draw the start at point guard Monday as the Bucks elect to shake things up.

Bledsoe is listed as doubtful on the Bucks' injury report ahead of Monday's matchup against Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe is apparently dealing with some swelling in his right knee, so the team is leaning toward holding him out on the second night of a back-to-back. With George Hill (leg) already ruled out, Donte DiVincenzo could be in line for more playmaking duties.

Bledsoe accumulated 28 points (12-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-5 FT), seven assists, three rebounds and one steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
While Bledsoe's fantasy value is still inside the top 80, he's had some struggles recently, falling out of the top 150 in nine-categoyr formats over his last eight games due to some poor shooting performances - from both the field and the line. A lot of his struggles came during a three-game stretch that saw the 30-year old average just 6.0 points on 39.4 percent shooting. However, the two games following that rough patch were better, as Bledsoe put up 13.5 points, 5.0 dimes, 4.5 boards and 1.5 steals, while shooting 47.1 percent. He added to that momentum in this one, shooting 63.2 percent from the field on his way to 28 points in the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee). The Bucks will need Bledsoe to maintain a competent level of production down the stretch if they expect to protect their number-one seed from the Raptors, who are still eight games back.

Bledsoe finished with 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three steals and three assists in Milwaukee's 113-103 loss to the Lakers on Friday. He also had five turnovers.
EDGE Analysis
Many Bucks underwhelmed in what was a defensive-driven game in Los Angeles, featuring a 48-48 score at the half. Bledsoe was mediocre, but mostly inept versus the smothering defense of Avery Bradley and Danny Green. Bledsoe is averaging just 9.0 points per game through his previous five.

Bledsoe totaled 16 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven assists and five rebounds in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 119-100 win over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe was extremely efficient offensively while snapping a three-game skid of single-digit scoring. He has received 27 minutes or less in seven of his last nine appearances, but nonetheless Bledsoe remains a useful option across all fantasy formats.

Bledsoe posted seven points (3-5 FG, 1-1 FT), four assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Monday's 105-89 loss to the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe has seen either 22 or 21 minutes in each of the past three games, though one of those was a blowout win over the Thunder, and Monday's game was the second night of a back-to-back. Still, this is a less-than-ideal trend for fantasy owners, who have seen Bledsoe average just 6.0 points, 3.7 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.0 steal across the past three contests. Coach Mike Budenholzer, in the past, has shown a willingness to keep Bledsoe on the bench if he isn't playing well. We'll see if Bledsoe can turn things around Wednesday against the Pacers in Milwaukee.

Bledsoe posted 23 points (7-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 10 assists and seven rebounds during Monday's 137-132 overtime victory against the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
In addition to an efficient 23 points, Bledsoe was able to rack up 10 assists for the first time since Jan. 28, which was also during a victory over Washington. Monday's performance also marked the 24th time in Bledsoe's career that he's gone for 20 points and 10 assists, with his teams posting a 16-8 record in those contests. This month, Bledsoe is averaging 17.4 points, 6.8 assists and 6.0 rebounds in 30.7 minutes.

Bledsoe registered 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), eight assists and four rebounds in 27 minutes during Saturday's 119-98 win over the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran point guard has scored in double digits in 11 straight contests while notching three or more boards and/or four or more assists in each of those games. He is averaging 18.5 points, 6.6 assists and 5.4 boards per game during that span, as he has settled himself as an excellent scoring option in Milwaukee's high-octane offense.

Bledsoe posted 19 points (8-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six assists, four rebounds, two steals and one block in 27 minutes during Thursday's 126-106 win over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe produced in every category and turned in a strong stat line despite his modest minute total. Milwaukee held a 27-point lead entering the fourth quarter, so it wasn't much of a surprise that Bledsoe didn't log a ton of minutes. He'll look to provide another impressive performance during Saturday's marquee matchup versus the 76ers.
