By Adam McGee
The Milwaukee Bucks rallied through an incredible flurry from the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night to make it 17 consecutive wins.
A 13-point winning margin certainly doesn’t tell the full story of the Milwaukee Bucks’ win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night.
With Eric Bledsoe leaving the game early through injury, Giannis Antetokounmpo being forced to deal with foul trouble, and Jaren Jackson Jr. putting together one of the most explosive three-point shooting runs any Bucks team has ever been confronted with, there was a spell when the win streak seemed certain to be coming to an end.
