The Milwaukee Bucks dropped tonight’s contest against the Philadelphia 76ers, 116-94. The Bucks trotted out their eleventh different starting lineup of the season, this one did not include Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Malcolm Brogdon (personal). The Bucks pieced together a closer-than-expected first half and were down by only six at the break, despite trailing by as much as 16. A 13-4 run to close out the half was spearheaded by [squints at note card] Marshall Plumlee, who signed a two-way contract earlier in the week.
The Bucks were able to continue that run into the third quarter by benefiting from 11 76ers turnovers and cutting the lead to four.
