Saturday, Feb. 7: Boston Celtics at Milwaukee Bucks

It was no secret that Milwaukee’s recent success and Giannis putting on a show excited the area for their game Saturday night against the Celtics.  The BMO Harris Bradley Center was rocking for Brandon Knight bobble head night, and the team did not disappoint.

The Bucks defeated the Celtics 96-93.

Brandon Knight came out with a little extra fire on his bobble head night.  Knight finished with a game-high 26 points on 9-of-17 shooting while only committing two turnovers.

It seemed that whenever Milwaukee wanted to pull away with a lead, Boston would scrap their way back into the game.

This game down to the final seconds again, this time with Brandon Knight being the hero.  Knight hit a huge pull up jumper with six seconds left to put the Bucks up three; and they won with the same score.

Giannis continued his stretch of dominate play, posting another double double.  The Greek Freak had 14 points and 11 rebounds on his 6-of-10 shooting.  He was also getting warmed up for the dunk contest.

The win closed out a a 3-1 week for the Bucks and put them at 28-23 on the year.
