The Washington Wizards are one of the most pleasant surprises so far this season in the NBA, as they continue to show a great improvement over the previous season, and to show, today they defeated 94-101 to the Milwaukee Bucks, defending champions.
While Milwaukee still does not have Khris Middleton, star forward, they have already recovered Jrue Holiday, and have in their ranks the MVP of the finals, 2 times MVP of the regular season, Giannis Antetokounmpo, so they don’t need a competitive team, as they have good supporting players like Grayson Allen, Pat Connaughton, or Bobby Portis.
Giannis’s 29 points, 18 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and a block were not enough to lead his team to victory, nor were Grayson Allen’s 19 points, or Holiday’s 14.
