The Spurs fell behind early due to poor shooting and the Bucks jumped out early ahead. Shooting just 23% from three in the first half meant the Spurs were playing from behind all night while trying to claw back into the game. Giannis Antetokounmpo was his expected terror on both ends of the floor grabbing rebounds and stampeding towards the basket for buckets.
The Spurs went on a run in the second half thanks to DeMar DeRozan making shots and finding teammates for open looks. It was one of the more aggressive and energetic third quarters the Spurs have played this season.
