Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo were reliable as usual as the put up 25 and 31 points, respectively.

Maybe there’s a reason Bobby Portis is not getting a shout out from either Giannis Antetokoummpo and Damian Lillard during Milwaukee Bucks 9-1 run. The Bucks saw their seven-game winning streak come to an end at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks and while both Antetokounmpo and Lillard produced the usual numbers, others just did not show up or did not play the right way.
