Bucks forward Jabari Parker will make his season debut Wednesday after getting medically cleared to play Monday.
Parker, who was picked No. 2 overall in the 2014 NBA Draft, is making his way back from a torn ACL in December. Parker played in just 25 games last season, averaging 12.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game, before his knee injury forced him to miss the remainder of the season.

The Bucks (0-3) will also get guard Tyler Ennis back from shoulder surgery Wednesday.
“Having Jabari and Tyler back on Wednesday is great news for our team,” coach Jason Kidd said. “We know how many long hours they’ve worked to get themselves healthy with our first-rate performance team led by Troy (Flanagan) and Suki (Hobson). I know how much our team has been looking forward to their comeback, and being able to return to play in front of our great fans in Milwaukee has been their goal.”
Parker has been activated but is not expected to play Monday night against the Nets.
