The Indiana Pacers host the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night, and starting shooting guard Victor Oladipo will make his much-anticipated return to the lineup after missing 11 games.

On Nov. 30, the Pacers announced Oladipo was going to be out indefinitely as he continued to deal with a sore right knee. However, the All-Star guard practiced Tuesday and now he's back for the 17-10 Pacers:

Indiana went 7-4 without Oladipo. They are in fourth place in the Eastern Conference and figure to climb up the standings now that Oladipo is back. Head coach Nate McMillan told reporters Oladipo will start but will be on a minutes restriction:

Oladipo is averaging 21.4 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game this season while shooting 44.0 percent from the field, 34.5 percent from beyond the arc and 71.2 percent from the free-throw line this season. The reigning Most Improved Player of the Year leads the team in scoring and is second in assists per game behind point guard Darren Collison.

This is a big boost for the Pacers. Initially, many thought Victor Oladipo was going to be out for a significant period of time. Now with their best player back in the rotation, Indiana can go on a run.
