Considering Ingles has been out for 10 months, he'll likely be under significant restrictions while he works his way back to 100 percent. After the game, Green explained to reporters that the fan had said "some threatening stuff to my life." As you can see in the video above, many of the shots he takes are heavily contested with a hand in his face. He’s proven he can knock these down throughout his Bucks’ tenure, but hasn’t had the same success this year. The Milwaukee Bucks' Isolation offense has struggled this season.
Brook Lopez against the Mavericks in Dallas Friday night reached 1,600 career blocks, now at 1,603 he sits at #34 in the NBA all-time ranks. Lopez has blocked 533 shots as a Milwaukee Buck and earlier this season against the Philadelphia 76ers passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for sixth most in franchise history. Also for Jrue Holiday, his next steal will be his 1,300th career steal, Holiday would be the 74th player in NBA history to reach 1,300. Holiday would be just the 10th active player to reach the 1,300 steals mark, however he may be the 11th, Paul George trails Jrue by just one steal at 1,298 and plays Monday night and could pass Jrue. Holiday will have his chance Tuesday night against the Golden State Warriors. Jrue, based on his career totals could end up around the top 67 all-time in steals by the end of this season.
Milwaukee Bucks milestones to watch: rest of the team
Fans and Budenholzer recognized a pattern of how to defeat the Bucks. A team would win against Milwaukee if they kept attempting threes against the team’s drop coverage. There’s been a lot of talk among Bucks fans throughout head coach Mike Budenholzer’s tenure about his defensive scheme.

However, he may not have a significant role Saturday, as he played just four and seven minutes in his last two appearances. Is probable to return to Saturday's game against the Jazz with a sprained finger on his left hand, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Allen drilled a contested three that forced a Jazz timeout early in the fourth quarter. He should continue to see his regular workload as Jrue Holiday's partner in the backcourt.
Giannis AntetokounmpoPF #34
In a game that saw the Grizzlies carry a 46-point lead into the fourth quarter, Morant finished with 25 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for his third triple-double of the season. He became the first player in franchise history to have a triple-double before the start of the fourth quarter. Brook Lopez may be nearing 35 and will turn another year older before the end of this regular season but you wouldn’t guess that by watching him play this season. Brook Lopez is currently averaging 2.9 blocks per game, leading the NBA. Lopez has recorded 73 blocks in 26 games putting him on pace to block approximately 226 shots this season, an absurd total that would blow his career high out of the water by nearly 50! Lopez needs to block three more shots to move to #33 all-time, 29 to pass Vlade Divac for #32 all-time.
After being ranked in the top seven during every year of Mike Budenholzer’s tenure, they’ve struggled to produce points at a league-average rate this season. Although it hasn’t deterred them from racking up Ws, it could prohibit them from accomplishing their ultimate goal next summer. Enjoy edge-of-your-seat excitement, freakish plays and tons of fun all season long.

Bobby Portis has been on the record this offseason about how the Celtics series, as mentioned earlier, made him a better player.

Giannis also tied Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for 2nd longest streak of 30 or more point games in franchise history at eight before fouling out of Friday night’s game against the Mavericks. Starting with the man who will own every record in Milwaukee Bucks history someday, Giannis Antetokounmpo passed 15,000 career points Sunday night in Houston. Giannis is now one of only 13 active players to reach 15,000 career points and he just turned 28 years old. This will be the fourth consecutive season the Bucks will play on Christmas Day and the second straight season they will host a game in Milwaukee. After matching his career high of 35 points while making a career-best nine 3-pointers on Wednesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Herro drilled 10 3s while shooting 13 of 20 overall on Thursday. Butler finished with 20 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists, four steals and three blocks to co-author the victory, which came with the Heat missing starters Kyle Lowry and Bam Adebayo.
Jokic took the court for 40 minutes in the game, recording 40 points to go with an absurd 27 rebounds and 10 assists on 13-of-26 shooting from the field. If there’s a silver lining in all of this, it’s that the Bucks are relying on isolation basketball less than ever before. Budenholzer has found a way to improve ball and player movement and use actions such as dribble handoffs to keep defenses moving. Their offense is still a bit too stale for my taste, but it’s an improvement in activity from the past. Stay tuned for more Bucks news and analysis with the regular season right around the corner. Throughout Carter’s brief time in Milwaukee in 2022, fans called for more playing time out of him.
That’s because Middleton exited Sunday’s stunning road loss to the Rockets with a left ankle sprain. No one would ever say that Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks isn’t one of the best NBA players alive right now. The man is an NBA champion, Finals MVP, 6-time All-Star, 5-time All-Defensive Player, and 2-time MVP.
The performances were sloppy for the most part, but these are the three biggest takeaways following the trip. The content on this site is for entertainment and educational purposes only.

Malik Beasley contributed 17 points and Kelly Olynyk totaled 14 points and seven rebounds as Utah earned a second home win in three nights against the Pelicans. Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee with 19 points, six rebounds and five assists. Bobby Portis added 19 points and seven rebounds, while MarJon Beauchamp scored 12 points. Will not play Saturday versus the Jazz due to right knee soreness. Is probable to play in Saturday's matchup with the Jazz, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports. Is set to make his debut in Monday's game against the Pelicans, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Jazz, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Grayson Allen, Serge Ibaka, and George Hill are some of the names the Milwaukee Bucks are reportedly offering to trade. The Milwaukee Bucks are one of the teams rumored to make a beeline for Phoenix Suns' Jae Crowder.
Instead, Budenholzer continued to keep his same rotation and used Hill. It would ultimately be one of the determining factors in what would do the team in last season, with Hill struggling mightily in the postseason. The Bucks will go through some growing pains as they continue to adjust to a new defensive mentality. It’s great to see that Budenholzer is done allowing perimeter shooting to be his team’s fatal flaw, though. Adopting a new defensive scheme has been a long time coming for the Bucks.
This will be the fifth consecutive year the Bucks will play on Christmas Day and the second straight year they will play the Celtics. We already know what Carter brings on the defensive side of the floor, so anything he contributes offensively is a bonus. He has unexpectedly been a solid offensive player in his time with the Bucks, so there’s no reason he shouldn’t be the team’s primary option as a backup point guard this season. The strategy of letting role players continue to shoot is what came back to bite the Bucks. The team was willing to let Grant Williams try to beat them from the outside. The Milwaukee Bucks and Atlanta Hawks took part in two games in Abu Dhabi this week, playing the first NBA games ever played in the United Arab Emirates and the Arabian Gulf.
