The Milwaukee Bucks got Malcolm Brogdon back on Wednesday, as the guard came off the bench in Game 5 against the Boston Celtics.

Brogdon had missed 21 consecutive games after suffering a plantar fascia tear against the Miami Heat on March 15.

The 6-foot-5 combo guard will be on a minutes restriction.

Brogdon was in the midst of a historic season prior to the injury, becoming the eighth player to join the 50/40/90 club - shooting 50.5 percent from the field, 42.6 percent from behind the arc, and 92.8 percent from the free-throw line.

The 26-year-old averaged 15.6 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 3.2 assists in 64 regular-season appearances.
