Jamal Crawford's first NBA game since April 2019 was short-lived.
The Brooklyn Nets guard left Tuesday's matinee against the Milwaukee Bucks in the first quarter with a hamstring issue and was later ruled out for the contest.
It was Crawford's first game with the Nets since signing with the team last month. The 40-year-old immediately became the oldest player currently playing in the NBA.
The veteran looked good early, finding Rodion Kurucs with a quick assist.
