Hitting the halfway mark in their incredible season, the Milwaukee Bucks celebrated in style by routing the Portland Trail Blazers in a 122-101 victory Saturday night at the Moda Center.
The Bucks got an instant shot in the arm with superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo shedding his struggles from the previous night. That was the start the Bucks needed throughout the first quarter as they held a 32-24 edge at the end of one.
Milwaukee continued to operate comfortably ahead of the Blazers, even though Portland started to pick up their competitive verve over the course of the second quarter.
