Bucks Overcome Cavaliers in 119-111 Victory

Antetokounmpo and Lillard Lead the Charge, Securing Milwaukee's 24th Win of the Season

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard led the Milwaukee Bucks to a 119-111 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, with Antetokounmpo scoring 34 points and grabbing 16 rebounds, and Lillard adding 31 points, 24 of which were scored in the second half.
  • The Bucks overcame a 15-point deficit in the third quarter, outscoring the Cavaliers 40-21, to secure their 24th win of the season, giving them the third-best record in the NBA.
  • Despite a career-high 30 points from Jarrett Allen and 34 points from Donovan Mitchell, the Cavaliers were unable to secure a win, largely due to their poor 3-point shooting, with a season low of 14% from 3-point range.
  • Khris Middleton contributed 13 points and a season-high 11 assists for the Bucks, while Brook Lopez added nine points, 10 rebounds and six blocked shots.
  • The Bucks' victory marks their ninth win in 10 games, with Antetokounmpo averaging over 30 points per game this season.
