He only had two assists on one of his poorest shooting games of the season, making 14 of 27 attempts.

Damian Lillard missed a game-tying three-pointer in traffic as time ran out and finished only five for fifteen, which tied him for his sixth-worst shooting performance of the year.

Bobby Portis Jr. was 4-for-11 for nine points, while AJ Green had 21 points off the bench, matching a career-high with seven three-pointers.

The Bucks are only 6-9 away from home this season, as they will travel to meet the 8-27 Toronto Raptors on Monday.
