Khris Middleton scored a career-high 51 points in Milwaukee’s 151-131 romp over the Washington Wizards Tuesday night.
Middleton added 10 rebounds for a double-double as Giannis Antetokounmpo sat out the action.
It was the ninth win in-a-row for the Bucks.
Middleton is hoping to make it as an All-Star reserve for the second straight year when the rosters are announced Thursday.
Milwaukee scored a franchise-record 88 points in the first half.
Antetokounmpo isn’t expected to miss very much time with soreness in his right shoulder.
Eric Bledsoe also had a double-double for the Bucks with 34 points and 10 rebounds.
Milwaukee hosts Denver Friday.
