The Milwaukee Bucks found ways to both start and finish their last non-consolation bracket game of the 2017 Las Vegas Summer League in ugly, ugly fashion. The Bucks struggled right from the beginning on Wednesday, allowing the Sacramento Kings to take an early lead.
The Kings jumped out to an 8-2 lead that almost seemed insurmountable based on how the Bucks were shooting the ball early.
But both teams battled and the game was actually pretty close for a while, with the Kings leading at the half by four points and the Bucks holding a one-point advantage at the end of the third quarter.
