Bucks vs. Raptors: Roadkill up north

In a game that was far from perfect for the Bucks, they managed to pull out a 122-116 victory over the Toronto Raptors. The team had 18 turnovers (most coming in the first half), and didn’t shoot great from three (14/40), but still found a way to gut it out. Giannis was monstrous, and as […]

Kevin Porter Jr. out tomorrow vs. Raptors

The good injury luck the Bucks had going into the regular season didn’t last long at all.

It happened after he accidentally stepped on Bobby Portis’s foot while defending Cam Whitemore […]

Bucks vs. Wizards: Saying hello to a new era

Monta Ellis: A void that throws sparks

First, there was the sound. The metallic, bone-vibrating ring of the backboard, and only then the picture: the ball falling through the net while Toyota Center turns into an aquarium of school fish, all eyes wide, all asking if this is possible. Rockets disarmed at the buzzer. Milwaukee wins 110–107. And Monta Ellis, the one […]
