NBA, Bucks to applaud: 15 straight wins and first place in East
Return in style for The Greak Freak
The Bucks are the best team in the East (44-17 current record). Milwaukee celebrated Antetokounmpo’s return to the court in the best way possible, winning its 15th straight game. The success came against Brooklyn (118-104 the final). Remarkable was the contribution of the two-time MVP who finished with 33 points and 15 total rebounds.
The first game without James coincided with a dry defeat by the LA Lakers who surrendered to Memphis (121-109). Morant was decisive, finishing with 39 points. Nice win also for Denver, which got rid of Houston (133-112). Jokic celebrates the 24th triple-double of his incredible season. Dallas falls, losing in a sprint to Indiana (124-122). After 16 straight losses, San Antonio regains success by beating Utah (102-94, zero points by Fontecchio in 20′ of play).
