Stat line and impact

Dieng finished with 11 points on 4-of-10 shooting. He grabbed 10 rebounds and added five assists.

  • One steal and one block.
  • Hit one three-pointer.

Role change and context

The outing came after Dieng had started 12 of his previous 13 games. He was slotted to the bench while the Bucks were at full health.

Even in a reduced role, Dieng shines with energy and versatility. His two-way contributions stood out against Dallas.

Fantasy outlook and schedule

Milwaukee faces a back-to-back beginning Wednesday in Houston. That second leg could see several starters miss time.

As a result, Dieng could see increased minutes and opportunities. Fantasy managers should monitor injury reports closely.

In short, Ousmane Dieng showed he can be productive off the bench. His double-double adds depth value for the Bucks moving forward.
