The Milwaukee Bucks just became the first team in NBA history to have their entire starting lineup finish with at least 15 points, five rebounds, and a pair of three-pointers made in a game.
Each starter lit up the box score and shot efficiently while doing so. Here are their statlines:
- Jrue Holiday: 27 pts, 5 reb, 14 ast, 11-16 FG
- Pat Connaughton: 18 pts, 5 reb, 0 ast, 6-9 FG
- Khris Middleton: 17 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast, 6-13 FG
- Giannis Antetokounmpo: 28 pts, 10 reb, 5 ast, 8-15 FG
- Bobby Portis: 24 pts, 11 reb, 1 ast, 8-12 FG
During the Bucks’ 137-113 blowout win, viewers witnessed one of the best performances ever from a starting five. Here are some facts about the Bucks’ second straight win by at least 20 points.
Three starters put up double-doubles
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s 28 points and 10 rebounds got him to a team-leading 27th double-double on the season. While Antetokounmpo shot and rebounded at his season averages for yet another double-double, two other players showed out as well.

Bobby Portis’ 24 points and 11 boards got him his 18th double-double (second highest on the team) this year. Portis is now averaging 27.5 points in his last two games.
Additionally, Jrue Holiday – who somehow is not an all-star – put up 27 points and a game-high 13 assists.
The Bucks’ starters had 114 points
By scoring an average of 22.8 points per starter and 114 points total, the Bucks’ starters outscored the entire Clippers team by one point.
Of the 15 other teams that played last night, the Bucks’ starters alone outscored 10 of them. They also went 16-27 (59%) from distance, making 48 of their points from beyond the arc.
