Bucks guard Michael Redd is pleased with his comeback from major knee surgery.

"It's coming," Redd told the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "Rather than talk about what I'm going to do this year, I'm just going to do it. That's my mentality.

"I'm sure a lot of people are wondering how I'm going to return. I told coach that I wanted to play (in Chicago) just to see how a back-to-back goes. I obviously played limited minutes ... but I'm so happy."

Redd is averaging 16.8 minutes in the team's five exhibition games.

"The doctor just told me that I look great," he said following a meeting with his doctor in Chicago. "I'm taking the right steps. He said my knee looked great."
