Jason Kidd underwent hip surgery last month, keeping the Bucks coach from the team.
He’s expected to return soon.

ESPN sources say Bucks coach Jason Kidd, recovered from hip surgery, is returning to the bench next week after team returns from road trip

The Bucks have gone 8-7 under Joe Prunty with games in Houston tomorrow and New Orleans Saturday.
But at 19-25, Milwaukee is still 3.5 games and five teams from playoff position. It’ll take impressive work by Kidd to get this team into the postseason.
The big question: How much longer does he want this job before moving into the front office?
