The Phoenix Suns connected on eight of their first 10 3-pointers in a 140-131 win over Milwaukee Sunday afternoon.
Milwaukee cut the deficit to six points late in the game, 134-128, but Phoenix wrapped up the win at the free-throw line. That defeat marks the first time this season the Bucks have lost two games in-a-row.
Khris Middleton scored 39 points to lead the Bucks and Eric Bledsoe added 28.
They were playing without reigning N-B-A Most Valuable Player Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is sidelined by a sore knee and isn’t expected to play tonight (Monday) against the Nuggets.
Tip off in Denver is scheduled for 8:00 PM, with pre-game coverage on 1240 AM WOMT beginning at 7:30 following Sports Talk.
