The Milwaukee Bucks won their fourth consecutive game Friday night nipping the Dallas Mavericks 112-109. Khris Middleton hit two huge three-pointers in the final minutes to help the Bucks recapture the lead after Dallas took a 105-103 advantage with 2:39 left in the fourth quarter. Middleton scored eight straight to carry the Bucks down the stretch. Mavericks' Luka Doncic missed a desperation three-quarter court shot as time expired that would have tied the game.
Giannis Antetokounmpo scored a game-high 31 despite only going 1-10 from the free-three line. Middleton finished with 25 and Jrue Holiday added 16 as the Bucks (9-4) will now have a couple of days off before facing the Brooklyn Nets on Monday.
