For the third time this season, the Milwaukee Bucks knocked off the Detroit Pistons, this time in Detroit. They’d leave town with a 110-101 victory over their divisional foes.
After a clumsy start to the game by both teams, the threes started to fall — and three of them belonged to Brook Lopez. That’d be the leading factor in Milwaukee quickly mounting a double-digit lead, which they’d carry into the second quarter. The Bucks would be 7-of-11 on threes in the first quarter and maintained a 27-13 advantage after one.
The Bucks would continue to pour it on in the second quarter, mainly from beyond the arc.
