The Milwaukee Bucks have assigned injured Jabari Parker to the Wisconsin Herd of the NBA's G League. 

Parker tore his ACL last February and underwent surgery six days later. The forward can try to practice with the Herd as he recovers from the severe left knee injury. 

Also announced on Monday, the Bucks have requested waivers on guard Gary Payton II and have signed guard Sean Kilpatrick to a two-way contract.

Payton was signed to a two-way contract on October 17 and appeared in 12 games with the Bucks this season, averaging 2.5 points and 1.4 rebounds per game. Before being waived on December 7, the 6-foot-4 Kilpatrick played in 16 games with the Brooklyn Nets this season.
