    The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the San Antonio Spurs 113-92 on Thursday afternoon in both teams first non-intrasquad basketball since COVID-19 derailed the 2019-2020 NBA season.

    Shaking off the Rust

    The Bucks were 1-7 to start the game and struggled with consistency throughout most of the first half. The Bucks defense kept the game close and ignited the offense with some easy transition points.

    Reigning MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo stuffed the stat sheet with 22 points, four assists, three rebounds and three steals in just 20 minutes. He was a perfect 8-8 from inside the 3-point arc but struggled with his shot — 3-8 from the free-throw line and 1-5 on three-pointers.

    All-star Khris Middleton’s shot was also shaky — 4-12 from the field, including 1-6 from three. However, an aggressive Middleton was the catalyst for the Bucks offense, he drew three shooting fouls en route to scoring the first eight points of the 3rd quarter. Middleton finished with 16 points and five assists in 20 minutes.

    The Bucks backed Middleton’s aggressiveness and separated from the Spurs in the 3rd quarter. In the final seconds of the 3rd, Giannis dug deep into his bag for this clever pass to Robin Lopez in the corner, extending the lead to 20.

    Update on Missing Contributors

    Eric Bledsoe’s arrival to the ‘bubble’ was delayed due to a positive COVID-19 test. He is currently in the ‘bubble’ but is under quarantine while he waits for two negative tests 24 hours apart. His status for the scrimmage against the Kings is still up in the air.
