Bucks look to bounce back against Blazers

MILWAUKEE -- After blowing a 13-point halftime lead Monday night against San Antonio, snapping a season-high four-game winning streak, the Milwaukee Bucks will try to get back on track Wednesday night when they play host to the Portland Trail Blazers at Bradley Center.

Milwaukee was seemingly in control of the perennial Western Conference power but started to fall apart late in the second half and, despite a late surge, couldn't overcome San Antonio in the final moments -- even with a wide-open look from Mirza Teletovic.

Coach Jason Kidd said the loss will help Milwaukee in the long run as the team continues to find its identity behind young stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker.
