The result may not have gone how they would have hoped, but the Summer League Milwaukee Bucks continued to be a lot of fun to watch on Sunday evening.

The Bucks got their play underway in Las Vegas with a commanding 81-75 win over the Cavaliers on Friday, and would have been heavily favored to follow that up with another victory on Sunday.

In spite of leading throughout the majority of the game, the Bucks couldn’t find a real rhythm down the stretch and couldn’t make up for the disparity in free throw attempts.
