Bucks guard breaks news of own injury on podcast

Beverley did also say in the clip though that he felt good (despite “a little” pain in the wrist) and that he was in a strong place mentally. That would seem to indicate that Beverley may just end up playing through the injury.

As it stands right now, the Bucks, who are currently second in the East at 46-26, have not provided an official update on Beverley. In fact, they are listing him as questionable for Thursday’s game against New Orleans.

Former All-Defensive selection Beverley is a low-usage, defense-first player, anyway, who is putting up a career-low 5.1 points per game off the bench for the Bucks this year. While he still needs to let it fly from deep every now and then to keep defenses honest, Beverley can probably survive on the court for the foreseeable future if it is only a matter of pain tolerance.

That said, Milwaukee does not need another injury to a key rotation player with the start of the playoffs drawing near. They just got one big piece back from a month-plus injury absence, but now their top bench guard and tone-setter, Beverley, is dealing with a very troubling issue of his own.
