The Bucks’ six-game win streak has officially come to an end following their loss against the Warriors. However, they have been playing far better than their initial set of games under Doc Rivers. Giannis Antetokounmpo recently faced an Achilles ailment which restricted him from playing in full form at the Chase Center.
Golden State Warriors player stats
As usual, the Warriors maintained good consistency while shooting from beyond the arc averaging 48.7% on 39 attempts. They seemed far more dominant than the Bucks on defense recording 13 blocks and 10 steals. However, the Warriors need to be careful about giving up too many personal fouls.
