Bucks will play John Henson (thumb) for around 20 minutes Monday

Milwaukee Bucks center John Henson (thumb) is expected to play around 20 minutes on Monday versus the Charlotte Hornets.

What It Means:

Henson has been out since March 21, missing 10 games, with the thumb injury and coach Jason Kidd wants to ease him back into action before the playoffs tip off this weekend. Spencer Hawes and Thon Maker will see fewer minutes in the middle.

Henson has averaged 6.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game while posting a 0.8 nERD rating this season.
