Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton has been really solid this season. He's been doing really well as the team's secondary option on offense. And he's pretty confident that he can make the All-Star team for the second consecutive season, per Matt Velasquez of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

“I definitely think so. My numbers have been OK, but they’ve still been pretty solid. I think on the best team in the league I definitely deserve to be in that conversation again this year.”

Last season, Middleton became an All-Star for the first time in his career. He averaged 18.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.3 assists while playing 31.1 minutes per game. This season, he's putting up 18.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in 28 minutes per. His numbers have taken a very slight dip, but he's still the second-most important player on the Bucks roster.

Middleton's teammate Giannis Antetokounmpo, is a lock to become an Eastern Conference All-Star starter. The reigning Finals MVP is the primary reason why Milwaukee has the best record in the NBA. If Khris is going to make it to the All-Star team, he's definitely going to be a reserve.

But Middleton is fine with that. It doesn't matter to him if he starts or comes off the bench during the All-Star Game. As a matter of fact, he doesn't mind not making the All-Star team at all. What matters to him is that he goes out on the court and he gives the Bucks his 100% on a nightly basis. After all, Middleton and his teammates have a bigger goal this season, and that is to win a championship.

There aren't a lot of forwards in the Eastern Conference who are playing as well as Middleton this season. So it's highly likely that he'll get a spot in the Eastern Conference All-Star team. And if he does, he definitely deserves it.
