Connaughton contributed two points (1-2 FG), five rebounds and three assists across 16 minutes during Thursday's 125-96 victory over Miami. The veteran guard saw a bump in playing time with Khris Middleton (ankles) on the shelf. Connaughton will likely continue to struggle to find meaningful minutes unless injuries arise. Over his last five outings, he has averaged 4.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists across 13.6 minutes per contest. However, he has also received five DNP's via coach's decision in January.

Pat Connaughton Latest News
Increased run sans Middleton
Connaughton contributed two points (1-2 FG), five rebounds and three assists across 16 minutes during Thursday's 125-96 victory over Miami. The veteran guard saw a bump in playing time with Khris Middleton (ankles) on the shelf. Connaughton will likely continue to struggle to find meaningful minutes unless injuries arise. Over his last five outings, he has averaged 4.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists across 13.6 minutes per contest. However, he has also received five DNP's via coach's decision in January.
Little impact in loss
Connaughton finished Thursday's 113-110 loss to the Nets with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 10 minutes. Connaughton returned to the floor for the Bucks on Thursday night but failed to make much of an impact, playing only 10 minutes against the Nets. The veteran guard has played only four games in the last 19 for Milwaukee. He's averaging 4.6 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game, shooting 37.8 percent from the floor and 29.8 percent from beyond the arc.
Drops out of rotation
Connaughton (coach's decision) didn't see the floor in Wednesday's 122-106 win over the Bulls. Connaughton appears to have lost his spot in head coach Doc Rivers' rotation, as the veteran wing has now failed to get off the bench in both of the Bucks' last two games. Taurean Prince, Gary Trent, AJ Green and Andre Jackson are currently serving as the Bucks' primary options on the wing, and Connaughton's path to playing time will only become more blocked once Khris Middleton (ankles) is ready to make his NBA debut. Connaughton shot just 35.5 percent from the field and 30 percent from three-point range while averaging 4.9 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 17.6 minutes over the Bucks' first 13 games of the season before dropping out of the rotation.
Good to go vs. Cleveland
Connaughton (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Cavaliers. Connaughton was hobbled by a left adductor strain during the Bucks' loss to the Cavaliers on Saturday, during which he went scoreless over 10 minutes. It won't hold him out of action, however, as he'll be available off the Bucks' bench Monday.
Probable for Monday
Connaughton is probable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers due to a left adductor strain, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports. Connaughton was held scoreless for the first time this season during Saturday's loss to Cleveland, so while he's expected to play through the issue, it may impact his effectiveness. In his first five appearances of the season, Connaughton averaged 4.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 17.2 minutes per game.
Leads Milwaukee's bench in scoring
Connaughton closed with five points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds in 15 minutes during Monday's 119-108 loss to Boston. The 31-year-old led the bench in scoring with five points, though the entirety of the Milwaukee bench was outscored 28-19 by Payton Pritchard alone. Connaughton has received fairly consistent playing time off the bench four games into the regular season, but his 15 minutes against the Celtics marked his lowest total yet. In those four appearances, the veteran guard has shot just 7-for-20 from the field, including 4-for-14 from deep.
Retreats to bench
Connaughton isn't starting Thursday's preseason game against the Lakers, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports. Connaughton drew a spot start in Sunday's preseason opener, but he'll head back to the bench with Giannis Antetokounmpo (rest) and Gary Trent (elbow) returning to play. Connaughton should see plenty of looks Thursday night as he prepares to handle a bench role in the upcoming 2024-25 campaign.
Enters starting lineup
Connaughton will start Sunday's preseason game against the Pistons. Connaughton will get the start due to Giannis Antetokounmpo (rest) and Khris Middleton (ankle) being sidelined. Connaughton will likely serve as a quality role player for Milwaukee again this year come the regular season.
Will come off bench
Connaughton will return to a reserve role in Friday's matchup with the Raptors. After back-to-back starts due to injuries to the Bucks' regular starters, Connaughton is returning to the bench. He has averaged 5.6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.9 assists across 21.4 minutes this season.
