Usually, these Victor Wemanyama – Giannis Antetokounmpo match-ups have been must-watch TV, but with the latter out along with several more members of the Bucks’ main rotation, it was another methodical Spurs blowout win against a struggling opponent. Things were clicking offensively for everyone not named Wemby in this one, and they used a full team effort to put the Bucks away 127-95, despite Milwaukee trying to make things interesting with a hot third quarter that still didn’t even put a dent in the Spurs’ lead.
Stephon Castle led the way with an efficient 22-10-10 triple-double, and while it wasn’t his most efficient shooting night ever on just 7-21 shooting with no threes, Wemby still had 23 points, 15 rebounds and 6 assists. Six Bucks scored in double figures, led by 18 from Gary Trent and 15 from Myles Turner.
