Latest news on Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton

Recently, the Milwaukee Bucks were defeated by the Indiana Pacers by a score of 139-123. They struggled to hold their opponents off, so they’ll need to up the pressure if they want to defend their home turf.

The Milwaukee Bucks have a commanding lead in the Eastern Conference. They have a 1.5-game lead over the Boston Celtics. Seven of the Bucks’ last ten games have been victories.

With an average of 31.4 points per game and a field goal percentage of 54.2%, Giannis Antetokounmpo remains the best offensive player.

He scored 25 points (10-17 FG, 5-10 FT), grabbed 9 boards, dished out 5 assists, and stole 1 ball in 27 minutes of Thursday’s 139-123 loss to Indiana.

Antetokounmpo’s numbers from Thursday’s game aren’t as impressive as the 82 points, 23 rebounds, and 12 assists he had in his previous two games. The MVP hopeful didn’t perform poorly in most areas except the charity stripe.

Middleton has averaged 20.2 points and 7.8 assists while shooting 44.3% and 42.7% over that span.
