On Monday evening, the Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Chicago Bulls by a score of 111-107 to win their first preseason game.

Terrence Davis did not play in the game, and on Tuesday, the Bucks waived the veteran guard.

Via Eric Nehm of The Athletic: "The Milwaukee Bucks have waived Terence Davis, per a league source.

It's worth noting that the Herd acquired his returning player rights earlier this month."

Davis’ll be a tryout talent to prove health coming off injury and a “just in case”. https://t.co/i5Hx6TkXv4

Davis has played four total seasons for the Kings and Toronto Raptors.

His career averages are 8.0 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists per contest while shooting 43.4% from the field and 36.6% from the three-point range in 227 regular season games.

He has also appeared in 10 NBA playoff games.

When given minutes, Davis can be a reliable scorer for a team off the bench.
