These former Bucks and Wisconsin athletes will be suiting up in the NBA playoffs

The 76ers' Greg Monroe was part of the trade that brought Eric Bledsoe to Milwaukee.

The Bucks have the best record in the NBA and will be the squad everyone is chasing in the 2019 playoffs, though there are several other familiar names and faces who will be playing for other teams during the postseason.

Three of the four games that kick off the playoffs Saturday will feature former Bucks. Here's a look at who's still playing.

Detroit Pistons

Thon Maker was traded from the Bucks to the Pistons during the season.

Thon Maker. Traded from Milwaukee during the middle of the season, Maker has averaged more minutes in Detroit (19.4) than in Milwaukee (11.7) this season, but he's scoring only 5.5 points with 3.7 rebounds per game.

Ish Smith. Smith played in 16 games for Milwaukee in 2012-13, but he's become a more prominent player since then. The 30-year-old guard is in his third season with the Pistons and averages 8.9 points and 3.6 assists.

Zaza Pachulia. A popular player during his two stints in Milwaukee (the 2004-05 season and then two seasons from 2013-15), but he averages only 12.9 minutes in his first season with Detroit.

Jon Leuer. The former Badgers standout played the 2011-12 season with Milwaukee after the Bucks drafted him in the second round. He has averaged 3.8 points and 9.6 minutes per game this year for Detroit.

Glenn Robinson III. Not a former Bucks or Wisconsin player, but he is the son of Bucks great Glenn Robinson, a key part of the last great Bucks team in 2000-'01.

Toronto Raptors

Jodie Meeks. The 31-year-old veteran started his career in Milwaukee in 2009-10 after getting taken in the second round of the draft. He's bounced around to seven franchises, and he's played in eight games for the Raptors this season (averaging 6.4 points).

Philadelphia 76ers

Former Marquette standout and former Bucks player Tobias Harris team up for the 76ers.

Tobias Harris. Acquired by the Bucks during the 2011 draft, the 26-year-old spent his first year and a half in Milwaukee before getting traded to Orlando in an infamous deal that netted the Bucks J.J. Redick and others. He's the most important ex-Bucks player in the playoffs now, having emerged as a borderline NBA star. He has averaged 18.2 points for the Sixers since being traded by the Clippers in the middle of the season, with 7.9 rebounds per game.

J.J. Redick. Speaking of Redick, the aforementioned trade didn't look very good when Redick bolted after his half season in Milwaukee in 2012-13. He spent four years with the Clippers and is in his second year with the Sixers, averaging 18.1 points and shooting 40 percent from three-point range -- good, but the lowest he's shot since 2013-14.

Greg Monroe. Moose is all over the Eastern Conference playoffs. He's played with Toronto, Boston and now Philly since he departed the Bucks early last season (and Phoenix, for that matter, plus spent a short time on Brooklyn's roster), as part of the trade that brought Eric Bledsoe to Milwaukee. Monroe faced the Bucks in last year's playoffs.

Jimmy Butler. The former Marquette University star has had a bit of an up-and-down brush with super-stardom in the league, but he remains a big-time threat. He's averaged 18.2 points, 4.0 assists and 5.3 rebounds for the Sixers this year.

Indiana Pacers

Former Marquette standout Wesley Matthews arrived in Indiana during the season.

Wesley Matthews. The former Madison Memorial and Marquette University standout has had a great career in the league. The 32-year-old has gotten 31.5 minutes per game since arriving in Indiana midseason, scoring 10.9 points per game.

Orlando Magic

Michael Carter-Williams. MCW was a disappointment in Milwaukee after being acquired in the three-team trade that sent Brandon Knight to Phoenix, never quite flourishing under Jason Kidd during the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons. He's made four stops since then and has fared OK in Orlando, averaging 5.4 points, 4.1 assists and 4.8 rebounds in 18.9 minutes.

Golden State Warriors

Golden State's Andrew Bogut was drafted No. 1 overall by the Bucks.

Andrew Bogut. The former No. 1 overall pick by the Bucks and part of the 2010 "Fear the Deer" team spent seven seasons with the Bucks before four with the Warriors, where he earned a championship ring. He's back at age 34, playing 12.2 minutes per game and averaging 5.0 rebounds and 3.5 points.

Kevon Looney. The Milwaukee Hamilton product has been a solid bench player for the Warriors and also has 24 starts this year. He averages 6.3 points and 5.2 rebounds over 18.5 minutes. He's won rings each of the past two seasons.

Houston Rockets

Trevon Duval. The Bucks had Duval for most of the season on a two-way contract, but he was claimed off waivers in late March by Houston. He didn't get into any games for the Rockets.

Utah Jazz

Ekpe Udoh. He played three seasons for the Bucks from 2011-14, and this is his second year in Utah. He only briefly sees the floor (6.3 minutes per game) and averages 2.3 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.6 blocks.

Jae Crowder. The former Marquette University standout comes off the bench and scores 11.9 points per game with close to 5 rebounds.

Los Angeles Clippers

Garrett Temple. Temple briefly saw action with the Bucks in 2010-11, and the 32-year-old has hung around the league ever since, mostly with Washington. He averages 4.7 points in 19.6 minutes.

Sindarius Thornwell. The 24-year-old was drafted by the Bucks in the second round in 2017 but never played, getting dealt to the Clippers one day later. He averages 7.1 points.

Oklahoma City

Deonte Burton. The Milwaukee Vincent product played briefly at Marquette University and sees 7.5 minutes per game, averaging 2.6 points.
