Bucks Dominate, Rout Warriors At Home
The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Golden State Warriors, 118-99, at Fiserv Forum on Thursday night.

The Bucks (27-17) had one of their best performances of the season Thursday and completely destroyed the Warriors (30-11), and their dominance was noticeable as soon as the game started. Milwaukee quickly jumped out to a 37-21 score in the first quarter and bolstered that advantage even more in the second quarter, limiting Golden State to just 17 points and racing out to a 37-point lead following a three-pointer from Bobby Portis at the buzzer. The Warriors responded with a 34-20 score in the third quarter and a 27-21 score in the fourth, but that was not enough to turn things around and mount a comeback. The game was all but decided in the first half, and Milwaukee ended up winning the game with ease.

Giannis Antetokounmpo was the best player for Milwaukee and posted a triple-double of 30 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists, while Khris Middleton chipped in with 23 points, seven assists and five boards. Bobby Portis had 20 points and seven rebounds, and Grayson Allen contributed 15 points, five boards and two steals. The Bucks shot an impressive 51.2 percent from the field.

Andrew Wiggins was the top scorer for the Warriors after notching 16 points and two rebounds, while Stephen Curry ended with 12 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two steals despite another woeful shooting effort (4-11 FG). Klay Thompson went 3-11 from the field and recorded just 11 points. Jonathan Kuminga impressed off the bench and delivered 15 points with seven rebounds. The Warriors shot just 34.7 percent from the field.
