Despite a huge performance from the Greek Freak, the Milwaukee Bucks couldn’t interrupt their bad moment

By Eurohoops team / info@eurohoops.net

Milwaukee’s nightmare seems to be unstoppable, as the Bucks are currently 3-7 in the last 10 games, and couldn’t find a win even against the 13th-seeded Memphis Grizzlies, who are struggling in the Western Conference, losing 113-110.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had another huge performance with a double-double of 35 points and 12 assists – one of them came with a no-look pass using his left hand -but wasn’t really able to give Doc Rivers’ team the victory.

“We had some guys here, and some guys in Cabo (San Lucas). These are tough games. Yeah, it’s a panic game for coaches”, Doc Rivers commented. Before the defeat handed over by Memphis, the Milwaukee Bucks announced they would shortly after add Danilo Gallinari to their rotation.
