In an utterly disappointing showing, the Milwaukee Bucks collapsed at home against the Atlanta Hawks, 145-124. Atlanta was led by a career-high points from Zacharrie Risacher, who finished with 36 on the evening. Giannis Antetokounmpo’s 31 led Milwaukee.
The Bucks rode on the streaks of some hot perimeter shooting to a 44-37 lead after a quarter of play. Led by 14 points from Kyle Kuzma, Milwaukee shot 5/7 from the arc in the opening frame. Kuzma was lights out, not missing a basket (6/6 from the floor, including 3/3 from downtown).
