Milwaukee Bucks fans were strange that Khris Middleton for the first time in 12 seasons. Undoubtedly, it was also strange – for many years of team members, such as Giannis Antetokunmpo and Brook Lopez.
Playing on opposite pages, Giannis scored 18 points At 6-9 from the floor and Bucks he escaped with the victory of 104-101 in Washington. For the first time in his first performance as a wizard and the first match from February 2, Middleton recorded 12 points, 5 boards and 2 thefts.
Postgame, pursuit of the pitch, was made available by hugs from Giannis and Doc Rivers.

Speaking with reporters, Greek Freak gave his thoughts about the character of Middleton as a player and what he brings to the reconstruction of wizards.
Khris Middleton no longer has Milwaukee Bucks Laundry, but Giannis Antetokunmpo noted him, just like the antique times
“We were terrified”, Antokounmpo he said Washington’s last game. With three Bucks, Curling Middleton received a pass in front of the Milwaukee bench, rising on the triple, which hit the plaque with three seconds. He just earned less than a minute earlier to reduce the lead to one.
“You know how fast it turns. I usually say: “Do it Khris!” Today I thought: “I miss Khris!” Crazy – Giannis laughed.
At that moment he watched off the beaten track after throwing 3:36. This was not the best performance of Antetokunmpo. Following their minutes of restrictions, the fouls kept him to just 19 minutes of action. He gathered more personality and turnover, 6 and 7 than collections and assists (6 and 3).
However, if it is available, he provided a sufficient number of visitors to fly home victorious. In the hand embrace line after the buzzer it was love between Middleton and his former allies.
Giannis put a entertaining mood. “I’m glad I see him there. It looks strange. It looks strange with this T -shirt. It doesn’t make the shirt look good at all. ”
Weird may be an understatement. Antokunmpo did not play in his career without Middleton on the list, who only played 28th place as Night Nie-Milwaukee Buck-Protyt 27 with Detroit as a debutant.
“We laughed on the pitch. I miss this guy. I definitely miss this guy. “
From lizards back to wizards?
In full 9-46 wizards, they try to do everything, but they will win in 2024-25. They have passed from 2017-18 without a victorious season. If they keep their current percentage of winnings, it would be a low franchise.
According to Giannis, Middleton can lead them in the right direction:
He is the winner. He won’t stand. You can say. Although he had 15 points today, I don’t know how many points he had, he won. It moved to the side [Alex] Sarr and talked to him. It moved to the side [Jordan] Poole and talked to him. He is the winner. The last 7 or 8 years played in a basketball win. He doesn’t know how to lose.
By adding veterans such as Middleton and Marcus Smart on the trade period, maybe Washington can cultivate his adolescent talents in a successful core. As part of the contract, Middleton provides valuable experience and mentoring until the next season.
“It will definitely help the band to reverse him – if they want to reverse him,” Giannis continued. “At the end of the day there are 15 players in the team, there is only that one player can do.”
The 7-meter SARR, 19-year-old debutant, has an average of 11.7 PPG and 6.6 RPG. He led his team against Milwaukee with 22 points. While performance remains a problem for Poole, this season gets the highest career of 21.0 PPG to choose 4.9 APG and improve the three -point shooting (36.7%).
Sophomore Bilal Coulibaly contributes to 12.3 PPG, 5.1 RPG and 3.5 APG and is only 20. Middleton is there to aid them develop.
“He can bring leadership to a veteran, he will be loud, he will play the right way, put everyone in the right place. And he is definitely able to get his own. If you lead him to shoot him, play, he will make the right game. “
Khris is there, that is, to aid adolescent people in development and in the meantime getting his buckets-thirty-three years, letting go of dual-sided cube surgery, on each KHA $ H game it can still do it with the best of them.
