Middleton averaged 20.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 5.4 assists in 66 games with Milwaukee last season.

The 2021 NBA champion was plagued by injuries during the Bucks' postseason run in 2021-22, missing 10 straight playoff games as he recovered from a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee.

Milwaukee lost in seven games to the eventual Eastern Conference champion Boston Celtics in the second round.

The 10-year NBA veteran Middleton owns career averages of 17.1 points and 4.9 rebounds in 651 matches (576 starts).
