Milwaukee Bucks star Khris Middleton is expected to miss Wednesday's season opener against the Philadelphia 76ers, sources told ESPN on Monday.

The three-time All-Star will be out to start the NBA season as he rehabs from offseason ankle surgeries, and the Bucks are cautiously progressing Middleton toward a return, sources told ESPN.

Middleton did not appear in a preseason game and still hasn't been cleared to participate in the team's 5-on-5 scrimmages at practice.

He had participating in 3-on-3 scrimmages for most of the preseason, but Bucks coach Doc Rivers told reporters over the weekend that Middleton has been limited in practice since Wednesday.
