MILWAUKEE (AP)—Milwaukee Bucks forward Drew Gooden(notes) is active for Wednesday
night’s game against the Sacramento Kings for the first time in six weeks
because of left foot plantar fasciitis.
Kings point guard Tyreke Evans(notes) is expected to return from the same injury
Friday. Both players have been treated by a Los Angeles-based orthopedic
specialist.
Kings coach Paul Westphal said Evans is probable for Friday’s game against
Indiana. The reigning NBA rookie of the year has missed the last 19 games.
Bucks coach Scott Skiles says guard Michael Redd(notes) should return Saturday
against Chicago.
Redd said initially he was planning to return on Friday at New York. He has
been out for 14 months after twice tearing the same ligaments in his knee.
