Bembry underwent successful season-ending surgery to repair the ACL and MCL in his right knee.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry suffered the injury while closing out to Jordan Poole in the third quarter of a March 12 contest and had to be helped off the court. The veteran forward spent time with the Nets and Bucks during the 2021 campaign and averaged 5.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 18.3 minutes across 56 appearances. Bembry will be a free agent heading into the 2022-23 campaign, though there may not be many willing suitors if he has to miss a big chunk of the season due to rehab.

Bembry (knee) has been diagnosed with a torn ACL and MCL in his right knee, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Bucks' fears were confirmed Monday night after further imaging on Bembry's leg revealed multiple torn ligaments. Bembry will obviously miss the remainder of the 2021-22 campaign, and his recovery could encompass much of the 2022-23 season, as well.

The Bucks fear Bembry suffered a season-ending right knee injury during Saturday's 122-109 loss to the Warriors, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry suffered the injury while closing out on Jordan Poole in the third quarter and had to be helped off the court. According to Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com, Bembry was spotted with a large brace on his knee and was walking around with crutches after the game, so it's not too surprising that the Bucks are bracing for a long-term absence. He's scheduled to undergo an MRI later Sunday, with the results of those tests likely giving the Bucks a clearer idea regarding how long he might be out. Since joining the Bucks in mid-February, Bembry appeared in seven games and averaged 0.9 points, 1.4 rebounds and 0.9 assists in 10.9 minutes.

Bembry suffered an apparent knee injury against the Warriors on Saturday and has exited the game, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry hit the ground hard after contesting a Jordan Poole three-point attempt, and he was immediately attended to by Bucks team trainers. The six-year veteran was subsequently escorted to the locker room and appeared to be favoring his right knee considerably. Milwaukee will likely provide an update on Bembry shortly.

Bembry (thumb) is off the injury report for Saturday's matchup against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry hasn't appeared for the Bucks since signing his deal, but that could change Saturday. He might not be an every-game player, but we have yet to see how coach Mike Budenholzer will adjust to the long-term absence of Pat Connaughton (finger).

Bembry is out for Thursday's matchup against the 76ers due to left thumb soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry will have to wait to make his Bucks debut until after the All-Star break, as he's a late addition to the injury report with a sore thumb. With Grayson Allen (hip) doubtful, Milwaukee will remain thin on the wing. That could mean more minutes for Lindell Wigginton and Jordan Nwora.

Bembry signed a contract with the Bucks on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Though Bembry hasn't played in a game since Feb. 8 after being waived by Brooklyn shortly after the trade deadline passed last week, the Bucks likely won't waste any time incorporating him into the rotation. Milwaukee is expected to be without all of Grayson Allen (hip), Pat Connaughton (finger) and George Hill (neck) for Thursday's game against the 76ers, so expect Bembry to have a role on the second unit in his Bucks debut. His path to consistent playing time will become tougher once the Bucks are closer to full strength on the wing.

Bembry is close to reaching an agreement on a contract with the Bucks and is expected to finalize the deal as soon as Wednesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bembry was waived by the Nets to create roster space for the blockbuster trade with the Sixers and is now expected to sign with their Eastern Conference rivals. The sixth-year forward will reunite with head coach Mike Budenholzer, who was at the helm in Atlanta during Bembry's first three seasons in the NBA.
