That is good enough for 2nd in the Eastern Conference. Their depth could dramatically improve over the next few days as the Bucks received some major injury news on Joe Ingles. If all goes well, he could see the court Monday Vs the Pelicans.
Joe Ingles Could Return As Early As Monday
Adrian Wojnarowski reported today on twitter:

Ingles signed a one-year, $6.5M free agent deal with the Bucks in July. He brings another floor spacer and experienced postseason performer to Milwaukee’s championship chase.
