Well, it doesn’t look like the Milwaukee Bucks was close to ending its drought against the Utah Jazz when it fell on 129-115.
NBA.com box score
Milwaukee kept it closed in the first quarter, dropping just 31-35 after the initial period. In the second, they started to fall apart, with the non-Jazz team scoring them 13 on the way to a 17-point lead at halftime. The third quarter was a slightly better omen, but they made no significant progress towards a comeback. At the end of the game, there was little doubt that Jazz had the Milwaukee number earlier this season. They will have to compose themselves before ending their trip at OKC.
Stat that stood out
Milwaukee allowed 73.7% of the shots at the edge. The Bucks slowly worked their way towards the top of the league in terms of rim defense and came in tonight with 59.5%. Instead, even at a small volume, the Bucks did not stop Jazz from imposing its will on the edge in the 14-19 shooting.
