The Milwaukee Bucks were without their entire starting lineup and PJ Tucker, and as a result the Hornets pulled out a 127-119 win to cap off their road trip behind a game-high 26 points, seven rebounds and four assists from Miles Bridges.
Jalen McDaniels picked up where he left tonight off following a career-high 21-point performance against Oklahoma City. He buried a corner three for the Hornets’ first points and threw down a powerful dunk a few possessions later; he was hustling, attacking off of the bounce and making smart/quick passing reads right out of the gate.
The Bucks played well at first considering the circumstances, though that was due in part to poor perimeter defense from Charlotte.
