The Milwaukee Bucks will continue their Summer League run in Las Vegas Monday night when they square off against the undefeated Minnesota Timberwolves.

It’s not necessarily the battle for Paul Bunyan’s axe, but the Milwaukee Bucks will be looking to take down their neighbors to the West, the Minnesota Timberwolves Monday night to continue their 2019 Summer League run.

The Bucks are searching for their second win in Las Vegas after coming back and defeating the Atlanta Hawks Saturday afternoon in a 89-83 win.

That’s historically been a fruitless pursuit for past Bucks Summer League teams, but this year’s squad, coached by assistant coach Darvin Ham, may prove to reverse Milwaukee’s fortunes in that regard.

The Timberwolves, meanwhile, stand as one of the remaining undefeated teams in Las Vegas after taking their first two contests.

Minnesota’s Summer League coach is new assistant coach and former Argentinian guard, Pablo Prigioni, who may be best known for his NBA stints with the New York Knicks, Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers.

So without further ado, let’s look ahead to what stands out going into the Bucks’ meeting with the Minnesota Timberwolves to continue their Summer League run in Las Vegas.
