Damian Lillard recorded 26 points and 8 assists, while Giannis Antetokounmpo tallied 25 points, 16 rebounds, and 8 assists, as the Milwaukee Bucks cruised past the San Antonio Spurs 121-105 on Wednesday night. 

Brook Lopez added 22 points, including 17 in the first half, and AJ Green and Gary Trent each contributed 14 points, helping the Bucks secure their second consecutive victory after losing four of their previous five games.

Keldon Johnson led the Spurs with 24 points, but they struggled as a team, shooting just 18-for-52 from 3-point range. Chris Paul (18 points), Harrison Barnes (14 points), and Devin Vassell (11 points) also scored in double figures for San Antonio, while rookie Victor Wembanyama had 10 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 blocks.

The game was tight early on, with the score tied at 33 in the second quarter, but the Bucks then went on a decisive 32-13 run to close the first half, fueled by the 3-point shooting of Green, Lopez, and Lillard. The Spurs made a push in the third quarter, pulling within 10 points, but Milwaukee was able to regain control and led by as many as 26 in the fourth quarter en route to the comfortable victory.

The Bucks were red-hot from deep, connecting on 19 of their 42 3-point attempts (45.2%). Meanwhile, the Spurs were without starting forward Jeremy Sochan, who sat out due to a back injury.



================================================================

37 Games in. 45 More Games to go. The Spurs currently stand with a record of 18 Wins and 19 Losses. There have been highs and lows but if one looks back just 1 year at this time, they had 5 Victories Total. 

Should the Spurs go on a 3 Game Win Streak, with a little help from some upset minded teams, they could go from Play-In 10th to Playoff 6rh just like that. 

Buckle up, there still more than 1/2 a season to go.
