After a hard-fought loss to the Chicago Bulls on Saturday, the Milwaukee Bucks aimed to get their first win of the NBA Summer League on Sunday.
Well, things did not go according to plan. The Bucks came out flat and remained that way for most of the contest, finally showing some effort when it was all too late. Milwaukee never possessed the lead and trailed by as many as 38 points at one time in what was a tough one to get through, with the team ultimately losing 112-81.
Let's highlight a single stud and a few duds from this grueling contest.
Stud - Chris Livingston
If there was even a single positive takeaway from this lopsided outing, it was the high-energy play of soon-to-be sophomore Chris Livingston. In 23 minutes, Livingston, starting out of position at center, finished with 17 points, seven rebounds and an assist and a steal apiece. Shooting 6-of-11 on his field goal attempts, including 3-of-5 from deep, Livingston was very efficient from the floor.
One of Livingston's best attributes is his knack for rebounding the basketball, which was on display throughout this matchup. Using his length and frame, he knows how to put himself into position and battle with opponents for the board.
Livingston is a player to keep an eye on throughout the remainder of the Summer League. If he keeps up this strong play, it will certainly catch the eyes of the Bucks coaching staff as he aims to carve out a role for himself in the association. It's no secret that Milwaukee needs athletic wings, and they very well may have a potential-filled one here on their hands.
