Bembry was waived by the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday in order to accommodate their acquisition of Ben Simmons , Seth Curry and Andre Drummond from Philadelphia.
In 48 games (20 starts) with the Nets this season, Bembry averaged 5.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists, though he shot a career-high 41.7% from behind the three-point line and 56.8% from the field overall.
Originally a first-round pick of the Atlanta Hawks in 2016, Bembry played his first two seasons under current Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer.
The Bucks host Indiana on Tuesday and Philadelphia on Thursday before the all-star break.
