Giannis Antetokounmpo recorded his fourth triple-double of the season as the Milwaukee Bucks cruised to a 128-104 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Monday, MySportDab Reports.
The two-time MVP tallied 11 points, 12 rebounds, and a season-high 13 assists, guiding the Bucks to a much-needed win after losing four of their last five games. Damian Lillard contributed 25 points, while Khris Middleton sat out with an ankle injury.
Bucks coach Doc Rivers praised Antetokounmpo’s playmaking, calling his 10 first-half assists “contagious” for the team’s ball movement. The only setback for Milwaukee was a cut on Antetokounmpo’s finger that required stitches, but he still finished the game before resting in the fourth quarter.
In Chicago, Zach LaVine powered the Bulls to a 114-110 comeback win over the San Antonio Spurs, scoring 35 points along with 10 rebounds and eight assists. Coby White added 23 points, sealing the win with a late layup and a dunk. Despite 23 points, 14 rebounds, and eight blocks from Victor Wembanyama, the Spurs couldn’t hold on.
Detroit staged another comeback as Cade Cunningham’s 32-point performance led the Pistons past the Portland Trail Blazers 118-115. Tim Hardaway Jr. added 26 points, hitting clutch three-pointers in the final minutes, while Malik Beasley’s late steal secured the win.
Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns ended their four-game skid with a 109-99 win over the Philadelphia 76ers. Bradley Beal, coming off the bench, scored 25 points, while the Suns’ reserves outscored Philly’s bench 54-7.
Elsewhere, the Minnesota Timberwolves edged the Los Angeles Clippers 108-106, the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Dallas Mavericks 119-104, and the short-handed Orlando Magic stunned the New York Knicks 103-94.
