When asked about Khris Middleton, Mike Budenholzer said that Middleton is not with the team today for personal reasons.
But Budenholzer added, “He’s doing great. He’s in a great place. I would expect him to play on Wednesday, but he can’t be with us today.” – 5:23 PM

After that then, I started to get back to my normal self.” -via Twitter @eric_nehm / November 16, 2021
