Bobby Portis Doubtful for Bucks’ Game Against Hornets Due to Elbow Injury

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis is listed as doubtful for the team’s upcoming game against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday, November 16, due to a right elbow contusion. Portis has been sidelined since the Bucks’ game against the Toronto Raptors and was not available for their recent overtime win over the Detroit Pistons.

In his absence, Taurean Prince has seen increased playing time. During the game against the Pistons, Prince played 45 minutes, scoring 15 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. If Portis remains out, Prince is expected to continue handling more minutes and could be a valuable option for fantasy lineups and DFS considerations.

The Bucks are already dealing with several key injuries, including the absence of Damian Lillard, who will miss his third consecutive game due to concussion protocols. Other players like Khris Middleton, Ryan Rollins, and A.J. Green are also facing health issues, which could impact the team’s performance against the Hornets.

For the Charlotte Hornets, key players such as Miles Bridges, Mark Williams, Nick Richards, and DaQuan Jeffries are also dealing with injuries, which could affect the balance of the game. Bridges, in particular, is listed as questionable with a right knee bone bruise.
