Overview
- Minnesota led 76-45 at halftime and shot 59.8% with a season-high 22 three-pointers in a wire-to-wire win in Milwaukee.
- The Fiserv Forum crowd booed at the break; Giannis Antetokounmpo responded with a thumbs-down and booed back, later saying he thrives through adversity.
- Milwaukee committed 20 turnovers and dropped to 17-23, 11th in the East, extending a season without a winning streak longer than two games.
- Coach Doc Rivers cited “dead legs” after a four-game trip, but Antetokounmpo rejected fatigue as an excuse and urged harder, more selfless play.
- The Wolves won despite Anthony Edwards (foot maintenance) and Rudy Gobert (one-game suspension) being out, while the Bucks were without Myles Turner due to illness.
