Per sources, the clean-up procedure to his right knee was planned and scheduled prior to the season coming to a close. 目前三十一歲的 Middleton，預計可以從小型關節鏡手術中恢復過來，並且在七月回到場 上。根據消息人士，針對右膝進行的清理手術是在賽季即將結束時，就已經安排好了的。 Middleton averaged 15.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.9 assists in 24.3 minutes per game in 33 games this past season and increased those numbers to 23.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and 6.2 assists in 34.6 minutes per game against the Heat in the first round of the playoffs, but struggled with right knee issues throughout the 2022-23 campaign. Middleton 在上賽季期間，於三十三場比賽中，場均上了二十四點三分鐘，得到十五點一 分、四點二個籃板和四點九次助攻；來到季後賽第一輪對陣熱火時，場均上三十四點六分 鐘，得到二十三點八分、六點四個籃板和六點二次助攻。可是，在整個賽季期間，他一直 備受右膝傷病困擾。 Following a left wrist surgery last offseason, Middleton missed the first 20 games of the season as he waited for the wrist to heal and then worked to get himself back into game shape. Middleton returned to action on Dec. 2, 2022, and played six of the next seven games before missing 18 straight games with right knee soreness. 在上個休賽季期間進行了左手腕（韌帶撕裂修讀）手術後，由於需要等待傷癒的關係， Middleton 錯過了前二十場比賽，之後積極地使自己能夠恢復到競賽狀態。他在去年十二 月二日回到場上，並在再次因為右膝傷病問題而連續錯過十八場比賽前，在七場比賽中上 了其中六場。 During that time, Middleton told The Athletic that he was dealing with the lingering effects of a left ankle sprain and blistering on both feet, but overwhelmingly, it was the right knee soreness that was keeping him on the sidelines. 在該段期間，Middleton 向《運動家》表示，他正在處理著基於左腳踝扭傷和雙腳起泡的 連鎖效應，但很多時候，讓他無法上場的因素是右膝痠痛。 “I mean, it’s nothing too crazy,” Middleton said in mid-January. “It’s just kind of what I’ve dealt with every summer ramping back up for the season. Just getting my knee back accustomed to running, jumping, the force, the contact after being off for a long period of time. “I know it’s kind of vague, but the truth of it is that’s all it was. Just the swelling and all of that, we couldn’t get it to go away. My leg just wasn ’t strong enough or conditioned enough to withstand it.” Middleton 在一月中旬時，曾經表示： 「我的意思是，這沒有什麼值得奇怪的。這只是一種我每年夏天都會處理的問題，為賽季 做準備。只是讓我的膝蓋重新習慣於跑步、跳躍、力量，以及長時間休息後的接觸。我 知道這有點模糊，但事實是這就是全部。只是腫脹和那一切，我們無法讓它消失。我的 腿只是不夠強壯，也沒有足夠的條件來承受它。」 This is an important offseason for Middleton and the Bucks. Middleton has a player option worth $40.4 million for the 2023-24 season and needs to make a decision on that option by June 21. 對於Middleton 和公鹿隊而言，這是很重要的休賽季。他需要在六月廿一日之前，就手上 價值四千零四十萬美元的下賽季球員選擇權做出（是否執行的）決定。 短評： 只希望不要再有開季時，無法上場的問題了... 另外順帶一提： 在教練團新人事方面，Joe Prunty (曾任公鹿隊、老鷹隊臨時主帥) 和 Patrick Mutombo (太陽隊助教) 將成為繼Terry Stotts 之後，另外的兩位助教。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(pttbestweb.org.tw), 來自: 180.74.71.3 (馬來西亞) ※ 文章網址: https://pttbestweb.org.tw/NBA/M.1686307298.A.1A2
