In a showdown of interconference cellar-dwellers, the Milwaukee Bucks knocked off the Minnesota Timberwolves, 116-101.
The Bucks have been one of the Eastern Conference's biggest disappointments, sitting in last place in the Central Division after making the playoffs last year.
Khris Middleton's second-half surge has at least given the Bucks something to cheer for. He had 32 points, which included going 8-of-9 from three-point range, in the victory. Giannis Antetokounmpo was terrific, finishing just shy of a triple-double with 27 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds.
