Point guard Jrue Holiday returns to the Bucks’ starting lineup Sunday, but coach Mike Budenholzer’s team still tasted defeat for the fifth time in six games.
Despite 29 points and 18 rebounds from Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee fell to the Washington Wizards 101-94.
Bradley Beal led all scorers with 30 for the home team as it snapped an eight-game losing streak to Milwaukee.
The Bucks were still playing without starters Brook Lopez, Khris Middleton, and Donte DiVincenzo.
The Wizards scored the first 12 points, but Milwaukee bounced back to lead at the half, 52-49. Washington took control in the third period.
The Bucks visit the White House today (November 8th) to celebrate their N-B-A championship.
Their next game is at Philadelphia Tuesday.
