Posts 15 points in season finale
Sims totaled 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 126-106 loss to Philadelphia.
Analysis
Sims returned the starting lineup for the final game of the season. Sims averaged 5.0 points and 5.5 rebounds during his first full season with Milwaukee, and his future with the team is far from certain. He will be an unrestricted free agent in the offseason, and if the Bucks choose to unload Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), the team might be able to put together a better offer. The team has Myles Turner locked into a four-year, 108.9M deal, so he'd likely be destined for backup duty if he remained in Milwaukee.

Back in starting lineup
Sims will start Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis
Sims came off the bench during Friday's game against the Nets, but he will return to the starting lineup Sunday. Sims has played at least 35 minutes in each of his last three starts.

Posts double-double off bench
Sims contributed 11 points (4-4 FG, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 30 minutes during Friday's 125-108 win over the Nets.
Analysis
On the heels of logging his first career triple-double his last time out, Sims moved back to the bench to accommodate for the return of Myles Turner on Friday but still managed to collect his sixth double-double of the year. The fifth-year big man has been playing a significant role for the Bucks down the stretch, averaging 9.1 points, 8.7 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 28.6 minutes per contest in his last 10 games while shooting an efficient 66.7 percent from the field.

Won't start vs. Brooklyn
Sims won't start Friday's game against the Nets.
Analysis
Myles Turner (ankle) will return to the starting five following a two-game absence. As a result, Sims will head back to the bench. The 27-year-old big man is fresh off dropping his first career triple-double in Wednesday's loss to Detroit. With the Bucks still shorthanded, Sims will likely continue to see significant playing time off the bench.

Logs first career triple-double
Sims supplied 11 points (3-6 FG, 5-8 FT), 11 rebounds, 10 assists and two steals across 39 minutes in Wednesday's 137-111 loss to the Pistons.
Analysis
Although the Bucks dropped their second straight game and fourth over the last five, Sims was a bright spot in the blowout loss. The big man dished out a career-high 10 assists en route to the first triple-double of his career, adding a game-best 11 boards while tying Cade Cunningham for the game high in assists. Sims also turned in another efficient performance from the field and has shot 68.2 percent from the floor over his last three appearances.

Comes close to double-double
Sims accumulated 12 points (6-9 FG), eight rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 96-90 loss to the Nets.
Analysis
Sims has started in six of the Bucks' last nine games. Even though the results have been underwhelming at times, Sims is a decent low-end fantasy option who can stuff the stat sheet and contribute in points, rebounds and assists. Even if he has failed to score in double digits in five of those nine games, he's still averaging a decent, yet unspectacular, line of 8.1 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game while shooting 67.4 percent from the floor.

Starting versus Nets
Sims will start Tuesday's game against Brooklyn.
Analysis
Sims will return to the starting lineup versus the Nets after coming off the bench in Milwaukee's last two contests. In 16 starts during the campaign, the 27-year-old has averaged 6.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.4 blocks and 0.3 steals across 25.3 minutes.
