Nikola Mirotic (calf) plans to make Bucks debut Thursday
Milwaukee Bucks forward Nikola Mirotic (right calf strain) plans to plan on Thursday versus the Boston Celtics.
Mirotic should be able to make his bucks debut after getting in a full practice on Wednesday. He added that there may be a minutes limit in what will be his first game since January 23, when Mirotic was still a member of the New Orleans Pelicans. The Bucks should provide an update on Mirotic's status after Thursday's shootaround.
Mirotic averaged 31.4 FanDuel points over 32 games (22 starts) for the Pelicans before being dealt. Moving forward, numberFire's models expect him to record 16.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, and 1.1 triples per contest.
