Bledsoe had eight points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3PT, 5-6 FT), four assists and two rebounds in Tuesday's loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
This was Bledsoe's first real NBA game since March, as he missed the team's first two seeding games, as well as all three scrimmages, while recovering from COVID-19. He was a bit rusty on the offensive end, though Bledsoe was able to work his way to the line six times in 18 minutes of action.

Bledsoe is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
In his first action since joining the team in Orlando, Bledsoe will immediately slot back into the starting five at point guard, while George Hill gets the nod at shooting guard with Wesley Matthews (calf) sitting out. Coach Mike Budenholzer previously noted that Bledsoe's minutes will likely be limited Tuesday after the guard missed all of Milwaukee's scrimmages, as well as its first two seeding games.

Bledsoe's minutes will be limited during Tuesday's game against Brooklyn, Matt Velazquez of the Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tuesday will mark the bubble debut for Bledsoe, who was a late arrival following a positive COVID-19 test. Coach Mike Budenholzer confirmed that Bledsoe will return to action, but he noted that both he and Pat Connaughton will be kept to "a pretty low, reasonable number" of minutes.

Bledsoe is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe's absence from the report likely foreshadows his debut for the Bucks in the Orlando bubble. The point guard missed all of the Bucks' scrimmages as well as the their first two seeding games after arriving late to Orlando due to COVID-19. At this point, it's unclear whether Bledsoe will immediately return to the starting lineup.

Bledsoe (coach's decision) will remain out for Sunday's game against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe is still working on getting his conditioning back after joining the team late due to COVID-19. In his stead, Donte DiVincenzo should draw another start. In the opener, DiVincenzo posted 10 points on eight shots, six rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes.

Bledsoe will not play in Friday's game against Boston, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe was a late arrival to the NBA bubble and didn't participate in any of the Bucks' three scrimmages, so the team will exercise caution while ramping him up to full speed. With a healthy cushion over the rest of the conference for the No. 1 seed, Milwaukee has the luxury of bringing its starting point guard along at his own pace. Expect Donte DiVincenzo and George Hill to pick up some extra minutes in Bledsoe's absence Friday.

Bledsoe (illness) cleared quarantine and practiced with the Bucks on Friday, Malika Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Bledsoe (illness) arrived to the NBA bubble in Orlando on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old announced last week that he tested positive for COVID-19 (he was asymptomatic), but he's apparently cleared the testing protocols and is nearing his return to the team. Bledsoe presumably must still complete the league's two-day quarantine period before joining his teammates. The Bucks first game of the NBA restart is scheduled for July 31 versus the Celtics, so he'll have less than a week of practice time before the season resumes.

Bledsoe has tested positive for COVID-19 and is not with the Bucks in Orlando, Malika Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Milwaukee's starting point guard said "I am asymptomatic and feeling fine. Once I meet the NBA protocols, I look forward to joining my teammates in Orlando." It remains to be seen when Bledsoe will ultimately enter the bubble in Orlando, but when he does he'll have to fully clear the NBA's quarantine protocol before joining his teammates. The Bucks will kick off the season restart against the Celtics on July 31.

Bledsoe (knee) is not on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game versus Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Bledsoe went through a full contact practice Wednesday, and the team heavily implied that he would play, so his removal from the injury report is in line with what we expected. Bledsoe should step back into the starting lineup at his usual point guard spot.
