The Bucks too strong for the Magic
In Orlando, Milwaukee signed a quiet 5 in a row, disposing of the Magic with style (136-118). If the Wagners played respectable music for the Florida franchise (20 points for rookie Franz, 19 for German pivot Moritz), Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks were above. The Greek cracked 33 points, 5 assists and 12 rebounds to launch his team to victory, well supported by Jrue Holiday (25 points, 7 assists) or Chris Middleton (22 units, 3/7 behind the arc) .
The 3rd in the Eastern Conference (24-13) started strong to put Orlando at bay, then held and increased its advantage until the end. In an easy game, it was also an opportunity to see DeMarcus Cousins back to some form. The pivot scored 15 points and took 5 rebounds, getting along perfectly with his old friend Wesley Matthews. The Bucks collective continues to move quietly in the East, but surely…
Washington leaves with Bradley Beal back
Another player made his return tonight in the NBA. Bradley Beal, the back of Washington, returned to business following a week in solitary confinement. In full existential questioning as to its extension or a departure from the federal capital, the 3rd draft (2012) appeared in legs. Very leggy. He finished as his team’s top scorer (29 points, 10 assists), carrying his own to outrun and stand out once morest Cleveland (110-93).
Because the Cavaliers had started well, around the rookie Evan Mobley or Kevin Love (24 points, 11 rebounds), annoying until the Washington break. But on returning from the locker room, the Wizards passed a 10-2 without appeal to the visitors, flying to victory. A performance that leaves Beal’s teammates in 8th place in the East (18-17), while Cleveland remains in 5th position (20-15).
