If I told you the Milwaukee Bucks most exciting Summer League game would be the one without Jordan Nwora, how many believers would I have? Well, even in a turnover-fest, the Denver Nuggets and Bucks delivered lots of highlights in a genuinely enjoyable second half, as Milwaukee fell 87-94.
Milwaukee raced out to a surprising 24-16 lead after the first period, partially behind seven points from the former Wisconsin Badger, D’Mitrik Trice. After a positive shooting half for once, this plucky team without its leading scorer commanded a 46-41 halftime advantage despite 15 turnovers through two periods.
