In a matchup of the two greatest basketball players in the world, the Milwaukee Bucks crushed the Denver Nuggets, 112-95.
Milwaukee started this one out on a rampant 9-0 run, forcing Denver to immediately re-assess. The Nuggets forced their way back into it and even took the lead with just over three minutes left in the quarter. However, Milwaukee re-gained control and took a 28-23 lead into the second.
The Bucks’ lead ballooned in the second as Giannis Antetokounmpo began to came alive. He’d scratch out 26 points in the opening two quarters and served as a major reason why Milwaukee maintained a double-digit lead.
