Nets' Crawford leaves 1st game back in over a year with hamstring injury

Jamal Crawford's first NBA game since April 2019 was short-lived.

The Brooklyn Nets guard left Tuesday's matinee against the Milwaukee Bucks in the first quarter with a hamstring issue and was later ruled out for the contest.

It was Crawford's first game with the Nets since signing with the team last month. The 40-year-old immediately became the oldest player currently playing in the NBA.

The veteran looked good early, finding Rodion Kurucs with a quick assist.

He shot 2-of-4 before his departure, including one 3-pointer.
