Well, that was a sight for sore eyes. Returning home for the first time in nearly two weeks, the Milwaukee Bucks snapped a four-game skid with a nine-point victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night. Giannis notched a fourth 40+ point performance in the last two weeks, leading all scorers with 43 to go with 20 boards. Anthony Edwards led the T-Wolves with 30.
Minnesota slightly led for the majority of quarter number one, twice catching Milwaukee with their pants down in transition. Giannis and Bobby Portis combined for 23 in the frame to keep them down 33-34 heading into the second.
