Pacers' Stuckey will play vs. Bucks

Brian Spurlock-USA TODAY Sports

After missing the team's previous four games due to a right ankle sprain, Indiana Pacers shooting guard Rodney Stuckey will be back in the lineup on Saturday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, head coach Frank Vogel told reporters.

Stuckey suffered the injury on Nov. 6 against the Miami Heat, rolling his ankle while defending Dwyane Wade.

He sat out the team's next game two nights later against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but returned to score six points in 18 minutes on Nov. 9 against the Orlando Magic.

Stuckey is averaging 10.1 points and 3.1 rebounds in a reserve role for the Pacers after signing a three-year, $21-million deal with the franchise over the offseason.

Point guard George Hill is listed as probable to return after being sidelined for two games with an upper respiratory infection.
