@ New York Knicks, 12/21/19

The Milwaukee Bucks would stroll into Madison Square Garden on December 21 for a game against the struggling New York Knicks. Seven different players would score in double figures for the Bucks, but one player, in particular, surprised the team with his play.

The story of the night for the Bucks was Kyle Korver, who came in and scored a bench-leading 17 points. In 24 minutes of action, the wing finished shooting 60 percent from the field, hitting 6-of-10 shots overall. Korver shot 50 percent from three-point territory as well, burying 3-of-6 shots beyond the arc to bolster his scoring total.

It was a memorable night for Korver, who was coming off a struggling effort versus the Los Angeles Lakers in their previous game. After shooting 1-of-3 from the field in that game, this performance against the Knicks was a perfect bounce back.

Milwaukee would handle their business in New York with ease, leaving with a 123-102 victory and a rejuvenated Kyle Korver.
