The time has finally come. Milwaukee Bucks fans will finally get to see Khris Middleton make his long-awaited preseason debut on Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
This will be Milwaukee’s final preseason contest before they kick off their campaign against the Philadelphia 76ers on October 26, so it’s good to know that the three-time All-Star will be able to suit up before the new season begins.
Milwaukee Bucks Star Khris Middleton Declares Availability Vs. Thunder
Middleton himself told reporters on Thursday that he’s planning on playing on Friday against OKC. This has been a long time coming and the fans have been waiting for this for quite some time now.
Middleton underwent surgery to address a lingering knee injury, and he now appears to be fully recovered just in time for the new season.
Will we finally get to see the Bucks’ Big 3 take the court together for the first time? That’s very much possible. Unless the team opts to sit either Giannis Antetokounmpo or Damian Lillard for Friday’s exhibition contest, then the new era could finally be upon us.
You just know that Bucks fans were going to be hyped to hear this news. True enough, the supporters let their feelings known on Twitter:

Honestly, that last one is a bit of an exaggeration. Either way, though, you can be sure that Bucks supporters will be tuned in for Friday’s contest.
