The shorthanded Milwaukee Bucks couldn’t overcome not having Damian Lillard, Brook Lopez, and Khris Middleton in the lineup, as they fell 114-106 to one of the hottest teams in the league, the Phoenix Suns. Giannis Antetokounmpo did his best to lead the Bucks with 34 points, ten rebounds, and six assists, but without his All-Star teammates, it was too much to overcome. Devin Booker led the Suns offense with 32 points, while Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal added a combined 53 points.
