    The Milwaukee Bucks remain the hottest team in the NBA. After going 10-0 in February, Milwaukee started March off on the right foot by defeating the Orlando Magic 139-117 on the second night of a back-to-back. Due to the team playing the Brooklyn Nets the night before, Khris Middleton did not play. Sandro Mamukeslashvili also did not play as he was waived a few hours before the game. The Bucks were able to overcome their shorthandedness thanks in large part to Giannis Antetokounmpo and some red-hot three-point shooting.

    The Milwaukee Bucks Made a Season-High Number of Three’s

    Milwaukee shot lights-out from the onset of the game. As a whole, the team went 26-56 from three (46.4%). Only Jrue Holiday (1-7 from three) and Bobby Portis (0-1) failed to shoot better than 30% from beyond the arc among players who attempted three’s (among players that played meaningful minutes). That being said, Holiday still finished the game 10-18 overall from the floor with 23 points.

    Bucks Players From Three

    • Pat Connaughton: 3-8
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo: 3-4
    • Brook Lopez: 4-5
    • Grayson Allen: 4-8
    • Jrue Holiday (1-7)
    • Bobby Portis (0-1)
    • Joe Ingles (4-7)
    • Jae Crowder (2-6)
    • Jevon Carter (1-1)
    • AJ Green (4-7)
    • Meyers Leonard: 0-1
    • Thanasis Antetokounmpo: 0-1

    Ball Movement

    One of the reasons why the Bucks were able to dominate for much of the game was because of the intense ball movement. Very rarely was a shot attempted without two, three, or four passes being made. Most importantly, the passes were crisp and clean, and Milwaukee committed just eight turnovers all night. The Bucks finished the night with 29 team assists on 49 made field goals.
