Nine days after beating the Portland Trail Blazers by almost 30 points, the Bucks lost to the same team Monday night by a 122-107 score.
The big difference was two-time N-B-A Most Valuable Player Giannis Antetokounmpo sat this game out.
The struggling Blazers built a huge lead with a 40-point second quarter and never trailed the rest of the way.
Jrue Holiday led Milwaukee with 23 points and Khris Middleton almost had a triple-double with 16 points, 11 rebounds, and nine assists.
Serge Ibaka started for the Bucks for the first time and scored six points to go with seven rebounds in 31 minutes of play.
Milwaukee comes right back (February 15th) tonight with a home game against Indiana.
