Khris Middleton (Washington Wizards)
October 2025

In his first Milwaukee game as a Wizard, Middleton received a standing ovation and tribute video before hitting an immediate three. The franchise’s No. 3 all-time scorer reflected on 12 seasons, three All-Star nods, and a title with the Bucks. Emotional return aside, Washington leverages Middleton as spacer/connector, preserving on-ball reps in second units while managing workload. Milwaukee recalibrates with Kyle Kuzma; the fan response underscored Middleton’s legacy despite the trade-deadline move.
