Milwaukee Bucks star Khris Middleton landed awkwardly late in the third quarter at the end of a defensive possession. He has now been announced as out for the rest of the games against the Boston Celtics.

The Bucks have already dealt with some unfortunate injuries for the better half of the year. Losing Middleton for any amount of time would certainly not help. They have not been playing as great as they have hoped for but still remain in second place of the Eastern Conference. Most of their early struggles can be contributed to the fact that they just simply have not been healthy.

Milwaukee announced last week that Donte DiVincenzo will be back on the court on Wednesday to take on the Indiana Pacers. Things started to finally look up for Milwaukee in terms of injuries but now they might have to deal with their worst one yet. Middleton has played a vital role in the Bucks' success over the past three seasons. He is one of the main reasons why they were able to walk away with an NBA title a season ago.

Without Middleton, the Bucks are going to struggle. Hopefully, this is just a precautionary measure and the Bucks will have him back within the next week or so. If Middleton is going to miss any time, Milwaukee is going to need some other guys to step up in his role.

They're currently losing to the Boston Celtics 100-86 and have not looked great for most of the night.
