After the Milwaukee Bucks slipped on banana peels in the first two games of their four-game California road trip, they turned things around and toppled the Los Angeles Clippers in a matinee special, 124-117.
Game Summary
As the Clippers play-by-play guy really wanted you to know, both teams came out with far more energy than you’d expect from a matinee tilt. While the Bucks defense continued its road trip struggles containing single players when they get cooking — in this case, Malik Beasley & Co. had a tough time preventing James Harden from generating space and feeding teammates — Damian Lillard’s three-point offense (4-4 in the frame) did enough heavy lifting to avoid an early hole to climb out of.
