Milwaukee Bucks: Grades from 110-103 win over Washington Wizards
By Adam McGee
The Milwaukee Bucks fought through adversity for a win on the road against the Washington Wizards, but how did the players perform individually?
As if playing a tough Eastern Conference rival like the Washington Wizards on the second night of a back-to-back wasn’t difficult enough, the Milwaukee Bucks ultimately had to overcome plenty of adversity before securing an impressive win on Saturday night.
With a change to the starting lineup, the Bucks didn’t get off to the kind of start they’d have hoped for, trailing 12-2 when the time came to call their first timeout.
Still, in spite of any apparent tiredness, Milwaukee showed an admirable ability to roll with the punches that came their way.

The Bucks fought hard to get the game tied up by half time, and did a nice job of staying within striking distance from that point on.
Already playing with a tight rotation, things only got more difficult midway through the final quarter when Matthew Dellavedova was ejected for a collision with Bradley Beal and Giannis Antetokounmpo was sidelined with foul trouble soon after.
The Bucks stuck to the task at hand, though, and big plays from Eric Bledsoe, Tony Snell and Giannis, upon his return, got the team over the line for an important win.
How did the players perform individually, though? Let’s take a closer look.
