NBA Note - Milwaukee Bucks Antetokounmpo, Giannis

Dec 14, 2017 - 9:34 AM F Giannis Antetokounmpo had a game-high 32 points and nine rebounds. It was- his 12th 30-point-plus game of the season. However, the NBA's second-leading scorer was held to 11 points in the second half on 3-of-9 shooting.

"I thought we did a much better job of pulling in and taking away driving lanes," Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said. "(Antetokounmpo) likes to drive the ball and then spin. We took that away from him. And then I thought AD did a great job against him, getting into him and being a little more physical with him and making him a jump shooter. We kept him out of the lane."

Antetokounmpo has scored at least 30 points in 12 of 26 games this season.
