Bucks battle Wizards fighting for top seed

After a strong win against the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday, the Milwaukee Bucks will be back in action fighting for the top spot in the East when they travel to the capital city and take on the Washington Wizards. 

 

Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 33 points and pulled down 14 rebounds in the victory for the Bucks that saw them jump out to a 41-26 first-quarter advantage. Brook Lopez, Bobby Portis, Jrue Holiday, and Khris Middleton all scored at least 18 points. Milwaukee moved to two games up on the Boston Celtics with four games left to play. With the top seed, the Bucks would have to wait for the play-in tournament to completely finish before knowing who their opponent would be. 

 

Washington has begun to tank the rest of their season, with their record sitting at 34-44 and officially eliminated from playoff contention. Wizards rookie and former Wisconsin Badger standout Johnny Davis got his first career start last time out against the Knicks, scoring 16 points in the game. 

 

Tip from Washington D.C. is set for 6:00 p.m.
