"In Monday's battle against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Wizards put together one of their most complete efforts of the season knocking off Doc Rivers' squad 129-126. Washington saw several contributors help lift the team to the win and although Middleton may not have been the leading scorer or the biggest threat in the win, the veteran forward's clutch three down the stretch is one of the biggest reasons the team managed to knock off Milwaukee."
"There's no denying that the Washington Wizards being at the bottom of the NBA standings only makes losing to them sting just a bit more. Coming at the hands of one of the most struggling organizations in the league, being knocked off by the Wizards is bound to cause some sort of frustrations, especially when it comes in the midst of a stretch of bad losses."
The Washington Wizards, despite being near the bottom of the standings, delivered a complete effort to upset the Milwaukee Bucks 129-126. Multiple contributors aided the Wizards, and Khris Middleton hit a clutch three-pointer late to help secure the victory against his former team. The Bucks have lost eight of their last ten games, deepening organizational frustration and increasing pressure to build a contender around Giannis Antetokounmpo. Milwaukee's prior trade sending Middleton away for Kyle Kuzma aimed to add youth, but the current 9-13 record suggests the roster has not improved enough to retain the former MVP long-term.
