In a jam-packed Fiserv Forum, the Bucks would outlast the Utah Jazz, 122-118. The main highlight? GIANNIS’ 50 BURGER.
A two minute drought would start this one for Milwaukee, with Giannis finally scoring the Bucks’ first points. Antetokounmpo would be the main heartbeat for the home team in the first quarter, totaling nine of his own. A balanced outburst from the Jazz starting five and a 47.6 percent clip from the floor would grant the visitors from Utah a two-point advantage moving into the second quarter, 25-23.
A small ball lineup of Giannis-DDV-Connaughton-Korver-Brown would be rolled out in the second quarter, and boy, was it not the solution.
