Rockets caught in headlights as they fall to Bucks 125-105

Yeah, so that happened. To the Houston Rockets’ credit, they were only outscored by two points from the second to the fourth quarter. The only issue with that is that the Milwaukee Bucks came out scorching in the first quarter and unleashed a 41 point barrage upon the Fiserv Forum.

Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez set the tone early as they connected on five of the Bucks’ seven first quarter threes. Giannis Antetokounmpo was simply unfair to guard as he had the rim rattling all night long.

While Jalen Green (22 on 6-19 from the field) did provide some highlights, the staunch defense of Milwaukee held him in check.
