[Saba Sports News] Milwaukee Bucks coach Adrian Griffin expressed a positive outlook for his team following their victory against the Dallas Mavericks. This win, which brought both teams’ records to 9-4, was fueled by the impressive performances of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. Antetokounmpo dominated with 40 points, 15 rebounds, and 7 assists, while Lillard contributed 27 points and 12 assists. The Bucks showcased efficient shooting, hitting 52.1% from the field and 85% from the free-throw line. This triumph marked Milwaukee’s fourth consecutive win, their longest streak this season.
“We’re building something special. You can feel it,” Griffin stated post-game, reflecting his confidence in the team’s direction.
Milwaukee’s optimism is also bolstered by their strategic move before the season, trading Jrue Holiday for Damian Lillard, a bold decision that underscores their commitment to assembling a strong team. Despite the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers currently having better records in the Eastern Conference, the Bucks, under Griffin’s guidance, are showing promising signs early in the season.
