Bucks’ Kevin Porter Jr. Undergoes Arthroscopic Knee Surgery to End Season

Overview

• The arthroscopic procedure, performed Tuesday in Vail by Dr. Tom Hackett at The Steadman Clinic, was announced by the team.
• The Bucks ruled Porter out for the rest of the 2025–26 season and did not set a recovery timetable.
• Porter last played on March 17 and averaged 17.4 points, 7.4 assists, and 5.2 rebounds across 38 games.
• This marked his second right-knee procedure of the season after a torn meniscus, with March absences tied to synovitis, or severe knee inflammation.
• He holds a $5.39 million player option for 2026–27, a decision the injury could affect as Milwaukee plans the summer.
