Bucks G Brogdon (quadriceps) out six-plus weeks

Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon will be sidelined six to eight weeks after suffering a partially torn left quadriceps tendon during Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Bucks announced the extent of the injury on Friday after Brogdon underwent an MRI exam and visited a team physician.

Brogdon was injured during a non-contact sequence during Thursday's game while driving for a layup. He left the arena on crutches following the contest.

Brogdon, the NBA Rookie of the Year last season, is averaging 13.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 46 games this season.

The severity of Brogdon's injury was announced the same day that forward Jabari Parker will make his season debut against the New York Knicks after recovering from a second ACL tear in his left knee.

Parker, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2014 draft, has been sidelined nearly 12 months. He is slated to play approximately 15 minutes against New York.
