By Adam McGee
The Milwaukee Bucks started off their home-and-home series with the San Antonio Spurs with a strong win on Saturday night.
The Milwaukee Bucks are building up another impressive streak. Losses to the Mavericks and 76ers may have briefly disrupted the regular pattern of things, but normal service has now been resumed.
With a win over the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night at Fiserv Forum, the Bucks became winners of five straight games. That means the Bucks are again in possession of the league’s longest current active streak, alongside the Utah Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder.

As the Spurs started this game by shooting the lights out, there was certainly reason to doubt whether that was going to be the case, but the Bucks showed no signs of panic and eventually responded with their own impressive shooting exploits.
The Bucks were outscored by 16 points in the midrange, and also lost ground at the free throw line, but were commanding winners when it came to the battles for points in the paint, and from behind the arc.
With all of that considered, let’s take a closer look at how the Bucks’ players performed individually in their victory over the Spurs.
