MILWAUKEE: So, the Brooklyn Nets just pulled off a nail-biter against the Milwaukee Bucks, winning 113-110. Cam Johnson was on fire, scoring 26 points, while Cam Thomas added 24. They really had to dig deep to fend off a wild comeback from the Bucks.
The Nets were cruising at one point, leading by 24. But then, the Bucks went on a crazy 20-point run, making it a real nail-biter. Giannis had a chance to put them ahead but missed his drive to the basket. Talk about a tense moment!
With just a few seconds left, Ziaire Williams grabbed the rebound and hit two crucial free throws. Damian Lillard then had a couple of chances to tie it up but couldn’t sink the three-pointers. It was a rollercoaster finish!
Giannis still had a solid game, racking up 27 points, 13 rebounds, and seven assists. He’s been on a scoring streak, hitting at least 20 points in every game this season. That’s some serious consistency!
Oh, and there was a bit of drama too. Andre Jackson Jr. got ejected for a hard foul just before halftime. It was one of those games where you could feel the tension in the air.
Looking ahead, both teams are back in action on Saturday. The Nets will take on the 76ers, while the Bucks face the Trail Blazers. Should be another exciting day of basketball!
