Mayo contributed a season-high 18 points (6-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, an assist and a steal over 29 minutes in Saturday's 108-95 victory over the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran guard managed his fifth double-double in the last six games, even though he received under 30 minutes for the first time in six contests. He also drained a season-high four three-pointers, and is now averaging a solid 12.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.9 assists over seven December games.

Mayo recorded 14 points (7-15 FG, 0-3 3PT), four rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 36 minutes against the Clippers on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Mayo got the start at point guard for the third consecutive game Wednesday and produced another solid stat line, dishing out a season-high eight assists while recording double-digit points for his fourth straight game. With Grievis Vasquez, Tyler Ennis, and Jerryd Bayless out due to injury, Mayo has taken advantage of his opportunities and proven himself as one of Milwaukee's top shooters. He should remain a relevant part of the Bucks' backcourt even once it is healthy. Up next is a bout against the Raptors on Friday.

Mayo supplied 15 points (5-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three steals, two assists, and one rebound over 36 minutes in Monday's 90-88 win over the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
In his two games as the starting point guard, Mayo hasn't really looked the part contributing only seven assists. He'll continue to share distributing responsibilities with the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo and will move over to shooting guard when Michael Carter-Williams is on the floor, so expecting a dramatic uptick in assists from Mayo probably isn't realistic.

Mayo made his first start of the season at point guard in Saturday's 106-91 win over the Knicks and finished with 17 points (8-12 FG, 1-1 FT), five assists, three rebounds, and one steal over 35 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
With the Bucks down three point guards in Jerryd Bayless (ankle), Greivis Vasquez (ankle), and Tyler Ennis (shoulder) and Michael Carter-Williams playing inconsistently since heading to a bench role, coach Jason Kidd made the surprising decision to have Mayo direct the offense, despite the fact that Mayo has served primarily as an off guard for his career. The position change might explain Mayo's unwillingness to attempt a single try from three-point range on the evening, but he still came through with an efficient performance. In addition to shooting superbly from the field, Mayo committed just one turnover. The strong outing should enable Mayo stick at point guard for Monday's tilt with the Trail Blazers, assuming Bayless, Vasquez, and Ennis remain sidelined.

Mayo posted a season-low two points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, and three assists in 24 minutes in Wednesday's 70-95 loss to the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
In spite of very inconsistent performances, Mayo has maintained his starting role since returning from injury. He may have had a break on his poor performance Wednesday because it was a blowout loss, so deep league owners may want to continue to wait-and-see how he does over the next few weeks before dropping him.

Mayo played 44 minutes in his first start of the season during Sunday's loss to the Hornets, finishing with 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 0-2 FT), five assists, four rebounds, and two steals.
EDGE Analysis
With the Bucks heading into Sunday's game with a disappointing 6-10 record, coach Jason Kidd elected to mix things up, as Jerryd Bayless and Mayo entered the lineup in place of Michael Carter-Williams and Jabari Parker, respectively. Given that the Bucks' long-term plans are centered around Parker, it's expected the second-year forward will eventually rejoin the lineup, but over the next few games, it looks like Mayo could receive some extended run, though he probably can't be counted on to exceed 40 minutes on a regular basis. It seems that the huge swath of playing time Mayo received Sunday was a product of Greivis Vasquez (ankle) being unavailable, but once Vasquez heals up, Mayo's minutes count could dip into the low-to-mid 30s. Still, even that kind of run is significant, and might make Mayo worth picking up in mid-sized or deeper leagues for those looking for additional scoring or three-point production from their fantasy roster.

Mayo is expected to be in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
The Bucks are benching both Michael Carter-Williams and Jabari Parker in favor of Mayo and Jerryd Bayless. Running with the starters, expect Mayo to see minutes in the upper 20's to early 30's. He's coming off a poor performance where he shot just 1-of-6 from the field and missed all four of his three-point attempts, so coach Jason Kidd is hoping a move into the starting lineup gives him a boost in confidence and production. Don't expect this to be a permanent change for Mayo, as he'll likely move back into a bench role within the next few games.

Mayo saw a season-high 29 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Kings, finishing with 12 points (5-15 FG, 2-12 3Pt), three rebounds, and two assists.
EDGE Analysis
The three-point attempts are pretty staggering for a bench player, but Mayo has lived almost exclusively outside the arc in his four games since returning from a hamstring injury that had bothered him since the preseason. A whopping 22 of his 28 attempts from the field have come from beyond the three-point line, so it looks like coach Jason Kidd will continue to turn to him as the Bucks' designated gunner off the bench. Expect an occasional big game from Mayo when he happens to catch fire, but he'll likely score very inconsistently from night to night.

Mayo scored three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) in his regular season debut Thursday against the Cavaliers. He added two steals, one rebound, and one assist in 14 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
It's still unclear whether or not Mayo will make his way into the Bucks' rotation, with Michael Carter-Williams, Khris Middleton, Jerryd Bayless, and Greivis Vasquez potentially taking up guard minutes. Mayo hasn't been known for consistency, and so until things are set in stone regarding his role, it may be hard to own him in most fantasy formats.

Mayo (hamstring) will be available Thursday night against Cleveland, CF Gardner of the Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mayo is yet to play this season due to a hamstring injury that's plagued him since training camp. After sitting out Milwaukee's first 11 games, he'll make his debut Thursday in what will likely be limited minutes off the bench. Both Jerryd Bayless and Greivis Vasquez have played well of late, so it's unclear just how many minutes will be available to Mayo once he's back in game shape.
