Bucks forward Charlie Villanueva returned to the lineup Friday night against the Phoenix Suns, while starting guards Mo Williams and Michael Redd are expected back within the next two weeks.
Villanueva, who checked in with 8:20 left in the first quarter, missed the previous 11 games and played just three minutes against Washington on Dec. 30 before leaving with right shoulder tendinitis. He played 30 minutes against the Suns, finishing with 10 points and a team-high 10 rebounds in the Bucks' 98-90 loss.

The Suns realize right now they might be too good for their own good.
Raja Bell scored 27 points, and the Suns set a franchise record with their 16th straight victory by beating the Bucks 98-90 on Friday night.
Shawn Marion grabbed 23 rebounds and Steve Nash had 16 assists for the seemingly unstoppable Suns, who have won 32 of 34 overall. They had a 15-game winning streak earlier this season, a run that ended with a overtime loss to Washington on Dec. 22.
Still, Nash was frustrated.
"There's no rings for streaks," he said. "We've had a tendency to really take people lightly and not be as focused as we need to be, and I think you saw that again from us tonight."
