After Action Report
In Milwaukee, the Bucks squeaked past the Mavericks 100-96. The Bucks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Fresh off a statement win, the Mavericks stayed locked in; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
