Carter will run with the reserves for Sunday's Game 1 against Miami, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Khris Middleton (knee) and Grayson Allen (ankle) are back, so it's unlikely Carter will be a significant part of the rotation for Game 1. Through 42 games as a reserve, Carter registered averages of 6.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.7 triples and 1.8 assists per contest on 40.3 percent shooting.

Rotowire
Carter (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Washington.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Probable for Tuesday
Rotowire
Carter (knee) is being listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
Carter has landed in the injury report with left knee soreness, but it doesn't seem like a severe problem, and he could very well be available off the bench for Tuesday's matchup. Carter is not expected to affect many fantasy decisions with his availability, though, as he's logging just 21.6 minutes per game while averaging 7.6 points and 2.1 assists across his last 10 games.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Available to play Sunday
Rotowire
Carter (knee) is good to go for Sunday's game against Philadelphia.
Carter is dealing with some soreness in his left knee, but he'll play through the issue as the Bucks look to rebound from Thursday's embarrassing defeat at the hands of the Celtics. Carter has played in every game this season and is averaging 9.6 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.2 threes per game since the All-Star break.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Iffy for Sunday
Rotowire
Carter is questionable for Sunday's game against the 76ers due to left knee soreness.
Considering the Bucks are fresh off of six games in eight days, it's no surprise Carter is dealing with some discomfort in his left knee. Over that stretch, he averaged 9.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists over 22.6 minutes. If Carter were to get the night off Sunday, Goran Dragic would likely take over backup point guard duties.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Starting again Wednesday
Rotowire
Carter will start Wednesday's game against the Pacers, Dustin Dopirak of the Indy Star reports.
Carter got the start Monday against Detroit in place of Jrue Holiday, but even with Holiday back Wednesday, Carter will remain in the lineup -- this time replacing Khris Middleton (knee). The West Virginia product finished Monday's victory with 22 points (8-15 FG, 6-8 3Pt) and two assists in 34 minutes.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Pops for 22 in Monday's win
Rotowire
Carter finished Monday's 126-117 victory over Detroit with 22 points (8-15 FG, 6-7 3Pt), two assists and one rebound over 34 minutes.
With Jrue Holiday (personal) not in the lineup, Carter got the start and was one of four Bucks players to top 20 points on the night. The fifth-year guard was coming off a zero-point effort Saturday in 18 minutes against the Nuggets and had scored in double digits just once in the prior seven games, so Carter's fantasy utility depends a great deal on how quickly Holiday returns to the team.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Moves to top unit
Rotowire
Carter will start at shooting guard Tuesday against the Suns.
The Bucks are missing both Khris Middleton (knee) and Grayson Allen (foot), so Carter and Pat Connaughton will be called upon as replacements on the top unit. Carter could be a solid streaming option for steals while he aims to slow down Devin Booker, but Carter likely won't take on much usage on the offensive end while Milwaukee has both Jrue Holiday and Giannis Antetokounmpo available.

Bucks' Jevon Carter: Back to bench
Rotowire
Carter will move to the bench Thursday against the Nets.
This was the expectation with Jrue Holiday returning to the starting lineup. The Bucks are missing Giannis Antetokounmpo (hand) again, so Carter could still play an expanded role off the bench after his dominant performance Tuesday against Orlando.

Carter wasn't shy from beyond the arc Sunday and scored 18 of his 20 points from deep in the win. This marks his first 20-point showing since Feb. 16 and is a reassuring sign for prospective fantasy managers after he was held to nine and three points in his last two matchups.
