Malcolm Brogdon out 6-8 weeks with quad injury
The injury news on Malcolm Brogdon is about as bad as feared.
The Milwaukee Bucks guard suffered a partially torn quad muscle on Thursday night and will miss 6-8 weeks, the team announced Friday.
Brogdon felt the injury as he went up for a dunk in transition and was barely able to get up enough to jam the ball into the hoop. The TV commentators said Brogdon told teammates he felt a pop, which was a bad sign about his quad.

Brogdon was averaging 13.5 points per game this season. Showcasing Milwaukee’s bad luck, the announcement of his injury comes the same day Jabari Parker is returning from a torn ACL to make his season debut.
