The Milwaukee Bucks picked up a win before heading off for Paris, completing their season sweep of the Chicago Bulls on MLK Day.

With a win on MLK Day, the Milwaukee Bucks continue to keep pace with history as their rate of winning only seems to get more and more blistering with every passing game.

On this occasion, it was the Chicago Bulls, who were the Bucks’ latest victims, and that’s a role that the local rivals have become increasingly accustomed to playing.

Wrapping up the season series with Chicago, Milwaukee has now swept their I-94 rivals for the second season in a row, and they’re currently in the midst of the franchise’s all-time longest winning streak against the Bulls.

That streak never really looked in danger on this occasion, although the Bucks did give the Bulls every chance to stick around by committing 23 turnovers on the night.

Still, with a triple-double from Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton and Kyle Korver shooting the lights out, and Brook Lopez dominating the paint on the defensive end, the Bucks had more than enough to hold off Jim Boylen’s team.

It’s wheels up to Paris for the Bucks now, but before all focus shifts to the NBA’s European showcase, let’s turn our attention to Milwaukee’s individual efforts from this game.
