Report: Jabari Parker returning for Bucks-76ers on Wednesday

The Bucks have stumbled to an 0-3 start, but help is on the way:

Jabari Parker, who was still bothered by a December ACL tear.

Charles F. Gardner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

Jabari Parker has been cleared to play Wed. vs. Philadelphia, according to sources. He will be active tonight vs. Nets but will not play.

A two-game stretch against the Nets and 76ers seems like an opportune time for the Bucks to get on track. But their biggest weakness has been defense. They’re allowing a league-high 117.1 points per 100 possessions.

Parker probably won’t help much there.

I like the Bucks’ collection of talent and future, but the question remains: How quickly will they be ready to win? It’s nice to have Parker playing, but he might not move the needle much immediately.
