After Action Report

In a track meet, the Bucks outlasted the Mavericks 118-108. Bucks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bucks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
