MILWAUKEE -- Inside the Milwaukee Bucks' locker room following Monday's 120-116 loss to the Dallas Mavericks, players were not hanging their heads.
They don't have time to.
Their 18-game win streak was snapped, two wins shy of matching the franchise record of 20 set during the 1970-71 championship season. But now Milwaukee's focus shifts to Thursday night, when the Eastern Conference leaders will welcome the West-leading Los Angeles Lakers to town.
"Yeah, obviously. It's gonna be a good game, gonna be a test for us," said Giannis Antetokounmpo, who scored a game-high 48 points to go with 14 rebounds and four assists against the Mavericks.
