Bucks guard Charlie Bell's "iron man" streak is over. Bell has a torn medial collateral ligament in his right knee, the team announced today.

Bell suffered the injury during a victory over Cleveland Saturday night at the Bradley Center. He will miss at least two weeks, according to director of player personnel Dave Babcock.

In 68 games this season (five starts), Bell averaged 7.6 points, 2.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists, including 15.0 points and 3.4 assists in leading the Bucks bench scoring in each of the last eight games. He has connected on 272 three-point field goals in his career with the Bucks and recently moved into fifth place on the Bucks all-time list.

Bell had played in 191 consecutive games dating back to the 2005-'06 season. He was the only Bucks player to appear in all 82 games last season and all 68 games this season.
