The Milwaukee Bucks kicked off their six-game homestand with their second victory over the New York Knicks in as many games.
In a rematch of their Christmas Day tilt, the Bucks once again edged out the Knicks behind the all-around play of Giannis Antetokounmpo and strong defense.
The win meant that the Bucks would also win the season series against the Knicks, going 3-1 in the four games between the two teams.
Giannis once again led the way for the Bucks, pouring in 31 points to go along with 14 rebounds, eight assists and four blocks in what’s becoming standard-fare for the MVP front-runner.
