MILWAUKEE (AP) — The Bucks say the knee surgery on forward Jabari Parker was
success and he is expected back in approximately 12 months.
Parker suffered a season-ending left knee injury for the second time in three
years on Feb. 8 during a home loss to Miami. The surgery performed Tuesday was
to repair his ACL.
Parker will miss the remainder of the season with the recovery and
rehabilitation period estimated at 12 months.
Parker was averaging a career-high 20.1 points and 6.2 rebounds as one of the
Bucks’ franchise cornerstones and the team’s second-leading scorer. An injury to
the same ACL in December 2014 knocked Parker out of his rookie season after 25
games.
