Veteran guard Jeff Teague signed with the Milwaukee Bucks on March 1 after the Orlando Magic waived him last week. The move reunites Teague with Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer, the two having worked together while with the Atlanta Hawks.

The 32-year-old Teague played 34 games for Boston this season but was traded to Orlando last week as part of the deal that brought guard Evan Fournier to the Celtics. The Magic, who also acquired two second-round draft picks in the deal, waived Teague shortly after the trade.

The last time the team competed in 2019, Marquardt qualified for sectionals in four events, the long jump, 100-, 200- and 400-meter dashes.
