NBA Exhibition: Bucks Blown Out By Indiana

The Milwaukee Bucks are blown out by Indiana 104-86 in an exhibition game Wednesday night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. The Bucks dropped to 0-2 in their four game preseason, and coach Jason Kidd says his team “didn’t play like the game mattered.” Giannis Antetokounmpo returned for Wednesday’s shootaround — but he missed his second straight contest while dealing with the death of his father, and Kidd said the other players just can’t wait around for Giannis to “create everything.” Milwaukee’s starters only shot 34-percent — the Bucks hit just 21-percent from three point range — and they committed 20 turnovers, 14 on steals. Gary Payton the Second led Milwaukee with 15 points, seven rebounds, and five assists — while Myles Turner and Lance Stephenson led Indiana with 17 points each.
