Mayo (illness) is expected to play Thursday versus the Nuggets, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Mayo entered the Bucks' first post-break game, Tuesday versus the Magic, with probable status but didn't log a second. Coach Larry Drew relayed Wednesday that he met with the guard and has every intention of using him in the backcourt rotation Thursday. Mayo's workload remains to be seen, but he'll have to contend with Brandon Knight, Nate Wolters, and Giannis Antetokounmpo, who received between 27 and 40 minutes Tuesday.
