Milwaukee Bucks All-Star Khris Middleton won't play against the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight.

Middleton is dealing with neck soreness.

Middleton has appeared in 51 games for the Bucks this season. He's averaging 21.1 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.2 assists while shooting 50.8 percent from the field, 43.8 percent from beyond the arc and 90.7 percent from the free-throw line.

The Bucks are 43-8 with Middleton in the lineup and 50-8 overall on the season. Just like last season, the Bucks have the best record in the NBA.

Milwaukee is able to be cautious with Middleton because of its stellar record and roster depth. The Bucks have already clinched a playoff spot.

Now 28, Middleton has career averages of 16.2 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 506 games with the Detroit Pistons and Bucks.
