No Giannis, no problem for Milwaukee Bucks as they defeated New Orleans Pelicans, 127-112 to win their 16th straight game. This 16-game win streak is tied for the 2nd-longest win streak in franchise history. This team is on fire even though Giannis who took a much needed break the guys pulled together and played an amazing game. The Bucks say that Antetokounmpo is dealing with quad tendon soreness.

This shows how deep this Bucks teams even without Giannis. They are gunning for the title and much has changed since the last playoffs. The team is coming together and they’re on a mission it really shows. The way Bledsoe is playing this year is great. He’s not forcing as much and stepping up big when Middleton was out and tonight with Giannis out. The ability for some players to step up when Giannis is out shows the true nature of this team.

Eric Bledsoe dropped 29 pts, 3 reb and 6 assist. Khris Middleton added 24 points for Milwaukee and Ersan Ilyasova had 18 points and nine rebounds. George Hill contributed 13 points off the bench. “I think we took a little more ownership of what’s going on out there,” Middleton said. “When Giannis is out there, he draws such a huge crowd that we play through him a lot. Without him tonight, we know we have to do a little bit more.
