The Milwaukee Bucks dug themselves out of an early hole to win comfortably over the battered and bruised Dallas Mavericks, 132-117. Giannis starred for the Bucks with a 29-9-9 near triple-double. Milwaukee defended Kyrie Irving decently well, I thought, but he still ended the night with 31 points.
Game Recap
Milwaukee’s 2/10 start from three (as well as some blown off-ball defensive coverage) allowed the Mavs to grab a small lead through seven minutes. To complicate matters, a Kyle Kuzma rolled ankle sent him back to the locker room, but he would return to the court after a few minutes of game action.
