Milwaukee Bucks: Grades from 99-88 loss to Washington Wizards

B+. Bledsoe still hasn’t been at his best, but he put on an amazing stretch in the second quarter when he was very impactful. He had four steals in the second quarter, and was an absolute menace on the perimeter, taking the ball away six times on the night. His shot wasn’t quite there, as he shot 1-of-4 on his three pointers. Still, some very encouraging signs, as he finished as the only Buck with a positive plus/minus, which was helped by his great defense.. Guard. Milwaukee Bucks. ERIC BLEDSOE

Another relatively less dominant game from Giannis. He wasn’t great finishing at the rim, and even got embarrassingly blocked once. Also, he settled for jumpers too often again. The team was outscored by 12 points when he was in the game. All that said, he put up a line of 23/8/4 with three blocks, so he’s still a pretty good player.. Forward. Milwaukee Bucks. GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO. B-

B. Henson got the start over Maker again, and did well in his 26 minutes. He stayed in his role, doing enough on offense, 10 points on 5-of-8 shooting, all around the rim. He also led the team in rebounds, with 10. Henson had a solid performance, and without doing too much has had a good impact on the team, even though they lost.. Center. Milwaukee Bucks. JOHN HENSON
