MILWAUKEE — Huge news out of Bucks morning shootaround as Malcolm Brogdon is "expected" to play in Game 5 against the Celtics.

The Bucks have won three consecutive games against the Celtics and are looking to close out the series Wednesday night at Fiserv Forum.

Brogdon has been sidelined for several weeks with a plantar fascia tear in his foot.

This season, the former Rookie of the Year made history by shooting 50/40/90% from the field.

Fifty% from two-point field goal range, 40% from three and 90% from the free throw line.

Brogdon will come off the bench on a minutes restriction, but the Bucks are finally back to full strength for their stretch run for an NBA title.
