The Milwaukee Bucks racked up their most dominant win of the season so far as they hosted the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday night.
With the Oklahoma City Thunder making the trip to Fiserv Forum on Friday night, the Milwaukee Bucks faced the prospect of going up against one of the NBA’s most in-form teams.
Not only had the Thunder won five straight games and generally been on an incredible surge since Thanksgiving, but they had also won nine consecutive games on the road.

Even with Khris Middleton missing out for the night due to a neck injury, none of this would ultimately mean anything to a Bucks squad that only seems to get more and more formidable with every passing game.
In spite of the game being incredibly competitive for the first quarter and a half, Milwaukee eventually moved up a gear and subsequently blew the Thunder completely out of the water.
With a combination of individual brilliance from Giannis Antetokounmpo, and just outstanding team play overall with contributors from all across the bench, the Bucks blitzed the Thunder to further add to what’s becoming one of their own more impressive stretches of play.
Looking deadlier than ever since the All-Star break, there’s no sign of this Bucks juggernaut slowing down.
With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at some of the key takeaways from Friday’s victory against the Thunder.
