In a game that felt nearly like a must-win, the Milwaukee Bucks got the job done against the Phoenix Suns, securing a 133-123 victory. Giannis Antetokounmpo did typical Giannis Antetokounmpo things, totaling 37 points along with six boards and 11 assists. Devin Booker’s 39 points served as a game-high. He also dished out 11 assists.
Fueled by Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez, Milwaukee’s offense leapt out to a quick double-figure lead in the first, forcing old friend Mike Budenholzer to call a timeout. Lopez hit a pair of threes en route to ten first quarter points.
