The Wolf of Wall Street clip where Leonardo DiCaprio’s character Jordan Belfort announces he is not leaving has become commonplace in the sports world. Travis Kelce used it to confirm his return for the 2025 NFL season. Giannis Antetokounmpo used it last month to affirm is loyalty to the Milwaukee Bucks. And now American Conference […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers did just enough to outscore a bad Milwaukee Bucks team 123-116 that was without two of their best players, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Myles Turner. It’s difficult to be too positive about the overall effort after a game like this, even though it’s an improvement from Sunday’s disappointing loss to the Dallas Mavericks. […]
Without Giannis and Myles Turner, the Milwaukee Bucks put up a surprisingly good fight against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but their hot shooting wasn’t enough in Tuesday’s home loss, going down 123-116. Without Giannis and Myles Turner, Kevin Porter Jr. led all Bucks scorers with a 25-point, 10-assist performance. Evan Mobley and James Harden paced Cleveland […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers picked up a win on the road against the Milwaukee Bucks. Let’s go over today’s winners and losers. LOSER – Perimeter Defense I’m not sure how this gets better. Cleveland’s shown a general lack of interest in defending the perimeter this season. It’s probably due to a combination of poor effort and […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Milwaukee Bucks. Evan Mobley and James Harden tied to lead all scorers with 27 points. Mobley also contributed 15 rebounds and 3 blocks. Milwaukee was without Giannis Antetokounmpo in this game. The Cavaliers saw the return of Sam Merrill and Jaylon Tyson, though Jarrett Allen and Craig Porter Jr. are […]
After suffering a scary fall in Sunday’s win over Indiana, Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo will miss a significant chunk of time with a hyperextended knee and a bone bruise. The Bucks reported that Antetokounmpo would miss at least one week after undergoing testing. Bucks staff changed his injury designation to out shortly before Tuesday’s primetime […]

After a back-to-back where the Milwaukee Bucks lost to the fiery-hot Hawks on the road and beat the Pacers at home, they’ll take on the Cleveland Cavaliers at Fiserv Forum on Tuesday. The last time these two Central Division teams met, KPJ iced the game with a clean fadeaway over Jarrett Allen in one of […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to bounce back from an awful loss to the Dallas Mavericks as they take on the Milwaukee Bucks on the road. The Cavaliers have fallen on hard times. They’ve lost three out of their last five games. That stretch has coincided with Jarrett Allen being out. His absence has been […]
Tuesday’s matchup will be the fourth and final time the Cleveland Cavaliers will take on the Milwaukee Bucks. So far, the Cavs have only had to deal with Giannis Antetokounmpo in one and a half of those games. They could be avoiding him again on Tuesday. The Bucks have listed Antetokounmpo as questionable for Tuesday’s […]
Though the Bucks dropped the tanking Pacers 134-123, Giannis left midway through the third quarter with what’s so far being called a hyperextended left knee. Read our full summary of the game here and catch a six-minute audio recap on the Bucks+ podcast, Bucks In Six Minutes, below. Player Grades Giannis Antetokounmpo 23 minutes, 31 […]
Finishing up their matinee back-to-back at home, the Milwaukee Bucks snapped a four-game losing streak, taking out perhaps the most unabashed tankers in NBA history, the Indiana Pacers. I copy-pasted nearly all of that sentence from last weekend’s victory over the Jazz and changed the team name. Aaron Nesmith scored a game-high 32 as his […]
The Milwaukee Bucks complete the second leg of their back-to-back today against the Indiana Pacers (or should I say “Tankers”). Yes, it’s pretty clear what result Indy wants today, so Milwaukee will just need to play semi-competently, and they should get across the line. The Bucks have won all three games in the season series […]
Despite strong box score games from Ryan Rollins and Kevin Porter Jr., the Bucks continued their losing ways against the soaring Atlanta Hawks—who now own a league-best nine-game win streak. In what has become a hallmark of the Bucks’ season, turnovers were again the bane of the Milwaukee’s game, while Wisconsin native Jalen Johnson led […]
On a Saturday afternoon Kids Game, the Hawks met the Bucks looking for their longest win streak since they won 19 straight way back in 2014-15. The Hawks were without Jonathan Kuminga, whereas the Bucks were missing Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ousmane Dieng. Atlanta once again established early control of the contest, with solid defensive possessions […]
Without Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks stood little chance against the league’s hottest team, the Atlanta Hawks, handing them their ninth straight victory in a matinee blowout at State Farm Arena. Oft-Buck killer (this season, at least) CJ McCollum had a game-high 30 points for the home team, Wisconsin native Jalen Johnson had a 23-point […]

The Milwaukee Bucks front up today against the Atlanta Hawks in what will likely be their final chance to beat a side right above them in the standings (and thus gain a full game on that opponent). Analysts like Zach Lowe have wondered whether Giannis will get shut down soon if they don’t stack wins […]
With Kevin Porter Jr. back, the Milwaukee Bucks put up one heck of a fight against the Miami Heat—who were down Tyler Herro, Andrew Wiggins, and Norman Powell—but couldn’t make the most of their possessions late, losing 112-105. Miami has now taken the season series 2-1. Read our full summary of the game here and […]
Just two days after Bam Adebayo’s historic 83-point performance, the Miami Heat got right back to it in another win on Thursday. They took care of business against the visiting Milwaukee Bucks 112-105, extending their win streak to a season-high seven games and winners of 10 of their last 12 overall. Miami is now nine […]

The Bucks are slogging through the final quarter of somewhat meaningless basketball. A trip to the play-in seems less and less likely with each passing game, and Bucks fans have their eye trained on the latest shifts in lottery order rather than actual playoff standings. With March Madness merely five days away, there are several […]
