Jae Crowder had been out of the Phoenix Suns rotation since the start of the season, as the two sides were working on finding the best trade.
The 32-year-old forward was a key part of a Phoenix team that reached the 2021 NBA Finals. Last season, he averaged 9.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.9 assists over 67 games.
Milwaukee has been unstoppable lately, having won its last eight games. The Bucks are second in the East with a 37-17 record.
