The Bucks’ game on Monday was all tied up 56-56 at the half, but sadly for them it didn’t stay that way. They fell to Denver 113-107. The Bucks got off to an early lead (up 13 with 5:34 left in the first quarter), but sadly they weren’t able to maintain that momentum.

The Bucks’ loss came about despite a quality game from Giannis Antetokounmpo, who dropped a double-double on 29 points and 12 rebounds. Antetokounmpo has been hot recently, having posted ten or more rebounds the last seven times he’s played.

Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers’ and the 76ers’ matchup on Monday was close at halftime, but the Trail Blazers turned on the heat in the second half with 72 points.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead the Trail Blazers to victory, but perhaps none more so than Malcolm Brogdon, who almost dropped a double-double on 24 points and nine assists. The team also got some help courtesy of Jerami Grant, who scored 27 points along with five rebounds.

Milwaukee’s loss dropped their record down to 32-15. As for Portland, their victory bumped their record up to 14-33.

This contest is shaping up to be a blowout: The Bucks just can’t miss this season, having made 49.7% of their shots per game (they’re ranked third in field goal percentage overall). It’s a different story for the Trail Blazers, though, as they’ve only made 43.9% of their shots this season. Given the Bucks’ sizable advantage in that area, the Trail Blazers will need to find a way to close that gap.

The Bucks didn’t have too much breathing room in their game against the Trail Blazers when the teams last played back in November of 2023, but they still walked away with a 108-102 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bucks since the squad won’t have the home-court advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
