Sat Mar 1 201400:02Luke Ridnour makes debut with Bobcats
Luke Ridnour played 13 minutes against the Spurs on Friday with two points and one assist.
He'll get some minutes as Kemba Walker's backup, but that's pretty much it. Ridnour won't have fantasy value while Walker is healthy.

Thu Feb 20 201412:54Luke Ridnour dealt to the Bobcats
Luke Ridnour was traded to the Bobcats on Thursday.
He was passed by Gary Neal and Nate Wolters for minutes with the Bucks and will get a new opportunity in Charlotte. Kemba Walker is capable of playing big minutes and the Bobcats have surprisingly gotten a lot out of Jannero Pargo, so there's little to like about picking up Ridnour.

Mon Feb 17 201409:31Report: Wizards, Bucks eye trade for Ridnour
The Wizards and Kings have both contacted the Bucks about trading for Luke Ridnour, according to CBS Sports' Ken Berger.
Ridnour is still an effective PG and his expiring $4.4 million contract is eminently tradeable, so this rumor has plausibility on its side. "The Bucks are also fielding calls about their young players," Berger writes, "but the message from the Bucks has been consistent: Barring a significant offer, their young assets are staying put." Gary Neal is also on the block and Ersan Ilyasova has reportedly asked to be traded, making Milwaukee a team to watch over the next 72 hours.

Luke Ridnour (back) was listed as a DNP-CD on Monday against the Celtics.
We'll let you know if his back continues to be a problem but it's more than likely he was simply out of the rotation tonight. Or both.

Luke Ridnour (back) will return against the Celtics on Monday.
He has been out of the rotation for the most part with rookie Nate Wolters and Gary Neal leapfrogging him for minutes. Ridnour is going to have a tough time holding value in most leagues while Brandon Knight is healthy.

Sat Feb 8 201418:58Luke Ridnour out Saturday w/ ailing back
Luke Ridnour's ailing back will sideline him vs. the Rockets on Saturday.
Ridnour doesn't have much appeal with both Nate Wolters and Gary Neal active for the Bucks, so his absence shouldn't alter fantasy lineups in standard formats. Consider him questionable for Monday's game vs. the Celtics.

Fri Feb 7 201414:11Luke Ridnour (back) questionable for Saturday
Luke Ridnour is questionable to play against the Rockets on Saturday.
He has not scored a point in any of his last five games with two DNP-CDs mixed in there. Ridnour has fallen behind Nate Wolters and Gary Neal in the rotation and has no fantasy value right now. He'll likely need an injury to Brandon Knight in order to get back on the radar.

Wed Feb 5 201422:03Luke Ridnour out with back tightness
Luke Ridnour is dealing with back tightness and will be re-evaluated at halftime during Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
With the way things are going tonight, he's likely out of the rest of the game. Ridnour has dealt with back problems before and may need to miss time. We'll let you know if he's able to return.

Fri Jan 31 201423:28Luke Ridnour doesn't play on Friday
Luke Ridnour did not play against the Magic on Friday.
He was a DNP-CD (coach's decision) and the nine minutes on Wednesday gave the indication coach Larry Drew has temporarily soured on Ridnour. He can be cut in most leagues.

Sat Jan 25 201423:32Luke Ridnour scores two points in start
Luke Ridnour moved back into the starting lineup on Saturday with two points, three assists and two turnovers.
He played just 15 minutes tonight and continues to be very inconsistent. Ridnour did play 29.6 minutes per game in his previous 11 starts, so that was a bit of a surprise even in the blowout loss. Larry Drew shuffles his lineup too much to bother with Ridnour in most leagues.

Sat Jan 25 201420:29Luke Ridnour starting vs. Hawks
Luke Ridnour will join Brandon Knight, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Ersan Ilyasova and Larry Sanders in the starting lineup on Saturday.
The Bucks have used a total of 19 different starting lineups on the season and this one has been used before. Ridnour usually puts up decent numbers with the first unit, but coach Larry Drew toying with his lineup makes it tough to own Ridnour.

Wed Jan 22 201423:51Luke Ridnour scores eight off the bench
Luke Ridnour played 19 minutes off the bench on Wednesday with eight points, three boards, three assists, one steal and two 3-pointers.
He had a wrist sprain and it didn't seem like it bothered him. Ridnour was running the point a little down the stretch and he seemed to fit in nicely shifting back to more of a point guard. He's going to be a risky player to own in most formats with the murky rotations of Larry Drew.

Wed Jan 22 201418:47Luke Ridnour is ready to go for Wednesday
Luke Ridnour (wrist) will play against the Pistons on Wednesday.
He's coming off the bench for the Bucks as the team will use their 19th different starting lineup. He should get his fair share of minutes, but Ridnour is only worth a look in deeper leagues for his lower upside.

Tue Jan 21 201414:21Luke Ridnour (wrist) ready to play Pistons
Luke Ridnour (sprained wrist) said that he'll be ready to play the Pistons on Wednesday.
Ridnour injured himself on Sunday, which shifted more playing time to O.J. Mayo, Gary Neal and Nate Wolters, but fortunately he avoided any serious damage. Although he's averaging nearly 30 minutes in 11 starts this season, Ridnour hasn't been helping fantasy owners much with averages of 7.9 points on 38.7 percent shooting, 5.2 assists and 0.8 steals.

Tue Jan 21 201413:20Luke Ridnour on track to play Wednesday
Luke Ridnour (wrist) is on track to play against the Pistons on Wednesday.
Ridnour practiced full on Tuesday after receiving good news on Monday's MRI and will likely be in the Bucks' lineup on Wednesday. Ridnour has some value in deeper leagues, but will again enter a muddied Bucks' backcourt and likely slide Giannis Antetokounmpo back to small forward.

Mon Jan 20 201418:39Luke Ridnour has sprained wrist, no fracture
An MRI on Monday revealed Luke Ridnour suffered a sprained right wrist and does not have a fracture.
This is good news for the Bucks with Ridnour's injury as more of a day-to-day ailment than one which will cost him significant time. Although, it would not be a surprise to see them keep Ridnour out of the lineup as they look to get the inside track for the most ping-pong balls. If Ridnour needs to miss game action, the Bucks will likely slide Giannis Antetokounmpo back to shooting guard -- which would really help his value -- and start Khris Middleton at small forward.

Mon Jan 20 201410:41MRI coming for Luke Ridnour (wrist)
X-rays were negative on Luke Ridnour's right wrist but he'll have an MRI in Milwaukee on Monday and his return date is uncertain.
"It did look kind of serious," said coach Larry Drew. "I don't know exactly what happened on the play, but he said it swelled right away. I saw him at halftime and it was pretty swollen." This could shift Giannis Antetokounmpo to SG with Khris Middleton at SF, or it could lead to more minutes for O.J. Mayo and Gary Neal. Either way, owners should await MRI results before making any moves.

Sun Jan 19 201419:58Luke Ridnour exits w/ right wrist injury
Luke Ridnour exited Sunday's game with a right wrist injury.
The Bucks are expected to provide an update at halftime, so check back soon for more details. Brandon Knight, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton stand to gain the most if the injury costs Ridnour any games.
