The Milwaukee Bucks are on a three game winning streak with the win last night against the Timberwolves at home. The Bucks found out a way to attack the strategy from the Timberwolves new Head Coach, Chris Finch. Antetokoumpo lead the team with 37 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in the win in only 29 minutes of play time. Giannis sat the whole fourth quarter until coach decided to put him back in with 3:49 seconds remained of the game. Unfortunately for the Wolves, this is their fifth straight loss in a row, having them lost their past nine out of 10 games. The Wolves now have the worst record in the NBA of 7-25. If the Bucks would of lost to them, that would of been a real disappointment for Bucks fans. Finch quotes, “Every game’s a game to learn from, We’ve just got to try to up our physicality on defense. I think that’s what I’d like to see going into the next game.”(ESPN 2021). Bucks looked very good from the floor in last night’s performance shooting 53.5% overall and went 20-42 from deep. That is pretty tough numbers to stop for a defense. Forbes for the Bucks had a season high to his record with 23 points as well. Coach Bud believed that ball movement and unselfishness stood out to him in last nights performance. KAT (Karl-Anthony Towns) along with Malik Beasley dropped 26 points for the Wolves, which was not nearly enough to take down the red hot Bucks. This matchup was back and forth between the teams, until Milwaukee went on a 21-3 run late in the second quarter. Bucks will stay at home as they take on Zion and the Pelicans Thursday night!
