The Milwaukee Bucks will have no time to rest as they look for a win on the second night of a back-to-back against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday.
After losing a close game against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night, there was no time for contemplation for the Milwaukee Bucks.
It’s on to the next one for Milwaukee as they’ll get their first look at Blake Griffin in a Detroit Pistons jersey on Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena.
The Pistons were once shaping up to be a playoff rival for the Bucks and the rest of the teams in the middle of a congested Eastern Conference pack, but with a record of 28-32 leaving them off the pace now, it seems increasingly unlikely.

Still, the threat the Pistons can pose will have to be taken seriously, as they’ll be fighting hard to keep their postseason chances alive.
If the Pistons were able to rally between now and the season’s end, and the Bucks experienced a slide of their own, there’s a chance that this game could be looked back on as a significant one.
Having lost to the Wizards and failed to secure a potential tiebreaker on Tuesday, the Bucks will be hoping to grab a win on Wednesday to wrap up the series with the Pistons at 3-1.
