Not playing Sunday
Porter has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers due to right knee synovitis.
Analisi
Porter was cleared to play the front end of the Bucks' back-to-back set Saturday against the Hawks, when he logged 18 points, seven assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block over 30 minutes in a 122-99 loss. He'll sit for Sunday's contest, and his next chance to play is Tuesday against the Cavaliers. Ryan Rollins should take on a larger role offensively in Porter's absence.

All-around effort in loss
Porter ended with 18 points (7-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 30 minutes during Saturday's 122-99 loss to the Hawks.
Analisi
Porter did a little bit of everything during Saturday's loss, leading the Bucks in rebounds while finishing second in both points and assists behind Ryan Rollins (22 points and eight assists). Porter has played in Milwaukee's last two games after missing the four previous contests due to right knee synovitis, but it's possible that he sits out for the second leg of the Bucks' back-to-back set against the Pacers on Sunday.

Available Saturday
Porter (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Hawks, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Analisi
Porter is officially cleared to play in the first leg of the Bucks' back-to-back set after dealing with right knee synovitis. He is expected to handle a heavy workload this afternoon with Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) ruled out. However, given Porter's recent four-game absence and the quick turnaround for Sunday's home game against the Pacers, Porter is a strong candidate to sit out the second leg of the back-to-back for injury management.

Questionable for Saturday
Porter is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Atlanta due to right knee synovitis.
Analisi
Porter returned from a four-game absence due to the same injury in Thursday's loss to Miami, playing 28 minutes and finishing with six points, seven rebounds, five assists and three steals. He's not believed to have experienced a setback in that contest, so his potential absence Saturday is likely just maintenance-related as the Bucks head into a back-to-back set. Even if Porter ends up playing Saturday, he'll be a candidate to sit out Sunday's home game versus the Pacers.

Struggles in return
Porter (knee) contributed six points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, five assists and three steals across 28 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 loss to the Heat.
Analisi
Back in action after missing the Bucks' previous four games due to right knee synovitis, Porter returned to the starting five but handled a more muted role than usual. He took on a 17.9 percent usage rate, well below his season-long mark of 24.0 percent. Porter should see his playing time and usage pick up a bit as he becomes further removed from the injury, though with a back-to-back set coming up for Milwaukee, he could end up sitting out either Saturday in Atlanta or Sunday at home versus the Pacers.

Available to play
Porter (knee) will play Thursday in Miami, Stephen Watson of ESPN reports.
Analisi
Porter is back after a four-game absence, and his return will likely result in Ousmane Dieng or Kyle Kuzma heading back to the second unit. Porter is averaging 17.5 points, 7.4 assists, 5.2 rebounds, 1.3 triples and 2.2 steals per game this season.

Questionable for Thursday
Porter (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Heat, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Analisi
Porter has a chance to end a four-game absence caused by right knee swelling. If he returns, fewer minutes would be open for Ryan Rollins, Cam Thomas and Gary Trent in the backcourt.

Remains out for Tuesday
Porter (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Suns.
Analisi
Porter will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to right knee inflammation, and his next opportunity to play will come Thursday in Miami. In the meantime, Gary Trent and Cam Thomas are candidates to see an uptick in minutes.
