Parker (knee) said he expects to be on the court Tuesday when training camp opens, Matt Velazquez of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Parker, who suffered a torn left ACL 10 months ago to put a premature end to his rookie season, has been taking part in informal pickup games with teammates in recent weeks, but training camp should provide a more extensive test on the health of his knee. Because he's such an integral part of the Bucks' future, Parker will likely be held out of some activities in the early stages of camp, but it seems possible that he may be able to take the court for the Oct. 27 season opener against the Knicks. Continue to monitor his involvement in training camp as draft day approaches. Once Parker is fully healthy, expect coach Jason Kidd to insert him back into the starting lineup at power forward.

The Bucks continue to exercise caution with Parker, who underwent surgery in January to repair a torn ACL. Coach Jason Kidd confirmed that Parker's recovery is going well, noting that the second-year forward is in great shape. "He looks extremely good," Kidd said. "His body has changed and his spirits are extremely high right now, being on the court." General manager John Hammond reiterated Milwaukee's cautious approach. "He's making progress. Wherever he's at, if we think he can play 30 minutes, we'll probably have him play 15."

Parker is eight months removed from surgery to repair a torn left ACL, and this was our first inclination that Parker is starting to compete in non-competitive games. General manager John Hammond already stipulated the organization will bring Parker along slowly this season, so playing time will likely be reduced at the start of the year. Parker's goal is to be ready for training camp, but history informs us that those returning from torn ACLs typically require two seasons before regaining their pre-injury form.
Thu Jul 30 201511:44Parker (knee) progressing well during rehab
Parker (knee) is progressing well during rehab, and the Bucks intend on bringing him along slowly due to his long-term importance to the organization, the Washington Post reports. "We're going to be very conservative with him," general manager John Hammond said. "If we think he's capable of playing 20 [minutes], we'll maybe play him 10 minutes. If we think he can play a back-to-back, we'll wait on the back-to-back. Whatever it is, we're going to be very cautious as [we] move forward."
Parker underwent surgery to repair a torn left ACL in January, and he wasn't able to participate in the recent summer league tournament. Many players require two seasons beyond the torn ACL before returning to peak form, as evidenced by the Lakers' Lou Williams, the Timberwolves' Ricky Rubio, and the Cavaliers' Iman Shumpert. Since the Bucks plan to handle Parker with kid gloves and coach Jason Kidd enjoys running deep rotations laden with veterans, Parker may not be a significant contributor early in the season. His primary goal is to be ready for training camp.
