    The Milwaukee Bucks have won their fourth-straight game and have won six of seven after defeating the New Orleans Pelicans 135-110 on Sunday night. Milwaukee matched up with a Pelicans team that was missing five of their most important players, including Zion Williamson, CJ McCullum, and Brandon Ingram. Like they did against the Denver Nuggets, the Bucks were able to take advantage of their opponent’s lack of depth on their way to victory.

    Giannis Antetokounmpo Ties Career-High for 40-Point Games

    Going into this season, Giannis Antetokounmpo‘s career-high for 40-point games in a season was 10. He has already matched that total through 50 games this season. His 50-point masterpiece on Sunday night was the second-straight game in which he scored 40 or more points. It was also Giannis’ second 50-point game of the month. On January 3, he scored a career-high 55 against the Washington Wizards.

    Giannis was incredibly efficient shooting the ball against the Pelicans. He ended up 20-26 from the floor overall and 3-4 from the three. However, he again struggled from the free throw line, going 7-12.

    Khris Middleton Increased His Minutes

    Over the last two games, Khris Middleton played just 15 minutes a game. In this contest, he played 18 minutes and scored nine points. Included in these was a rare one-handed slam dunk in the second quarter.
