The Milwaukee Bucks kicked off their frenzied and final week of their 2020-21 regular season with quite the speed bump.

Being thumped by the San Antonio Spurs in a 146-125 defeat Monday night not only saw an end to their five-game winning streak, but it resulted in their worst defensive performance this season. Per NBA.com/stats, the 140.4 defensive rating the Bucks allowed to the Spurs is the highest mark they’ve set for a single game this season and the same goes for the 68.
