In the top game of the day, the Milwaukee Bucks celebrated a 105-100 home win over the Los Angeles Clippers. The match winner for the hosts was once again the two-time “MVP” Giannis Antetokounmpo, who shone with 36 points, 14 rebounds, five assists and four blocks. This made the “Greek Freak” only the second Bucks player after NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1973), who scored at least 35 points in four games en suite. For the Washington Wizards, on the other hand, 46 points from league top scorer Bradley Beal were not enough in the wafer-thin 110: 111 defeat in Boston.
