In Milwaukee, the Bucks pulled away from the Rockets 99-89. Ugly basketball, but the Bucks did just enough. The Bucks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bucks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
