Kevin Porter Jr, a colleague, added 11 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists from the bench.
Milwaukee improves to 29-24 With victory, 5 in the east, playing in the back of Pacers, plays on growing pistons. The sixth absence of Antetokunmpo with a tight calf, bold results offered encouraging segism. Bucks end their list 3-2 in the first half, establishing a ship after losing a series.
After his leadership in the fourth game as a zloty, Kuzma issued questions from reporters in the cloakroom.
Kyle Kuzma praises Milwaukee Bucks’ Britty Defense vs Minnesota Timberwolves
Asked what he took from the efforts of his recent team, He said“Only we were really resistant. I think we did a great job, just fighting. It was in a sense like a sannium hammer match. We both made a few shots, but we both left many shots. “
After Milwaukee embraced the early advantage, up at 44-28 in the second quarter, Minnesota escaped to close in half during the break. Then it was a tight game.
As a Milwaukee team, he scored 44.3% from the field, and the wolves were worse, converting 37.9% of the clip and only 22.7% out of three. Bucks passed 12-30 outside the arch.
For his part, Kuzma did not have the most effective show, leaving the floor 7-17 after performing 6 of 9 on Monday compared to warriors. But his 19 points were in the second place in the team and led Bucks in the boards. He also spent four ten centuries.
“Refs allow us to play tonight,” Kuzma continued – “Many difficult, physical arts on the area, many rebounds for us. We just did a great job together. “
The 6’9 attacker helped relieve the Bucks defect on a glass, in the face of Minnesota syndrome, which even without Julius Randle can bring out Rudy Gobert in the center and Naz Reid in Power Forward. They combined 27 rebounds.
Giannis and his 12.2 RPG were lost, Milwaukee suffered a 48-59 deficit in this category, but they avoided trampling. Hustle and Scrappy Play helped overcome mismatch.
A complete team on the horizon
Defendally, Bucks came so close to the 100-point challenge of Doc Rivers. Even without Giannis, their best defenders, they kept their opponent to 101 and forced the wolves to shoot a complex night.
“We have to hang our hat on this. We have the potential to be one of the best defensive teams in the league with our size and our athleticism. I think the world will see when we come back after a break – Kuzma said.
11. In net defense, recently Milwaukee gave up unusual offensive results. Monday’s loss 125-111 from Golden State meant 7 once in 10 matches, which the team gave up over 125 points. In the previous 42 games it happened twice.
Certainly Giannis is missing, and less recently Portis did not assist Bucks Battle, opposing the substantial one. Although Bobby is not known for his defense, its size helps the opponent to fight offensive collections.
This team has also not yet revealed the potential of the brand. Kuzma has not yet played from Antetokunmpo.
“I think it’s just the biggest thing,” he said, “because we know when we recover Giannis, we have Dame, we can score a goal. This is the highest duo in the league. The rest of us simply have to do their role and help them. ”
Their 31.8 and 25.8 ppg there were a lot to miss Wednesday in Minnesota – the win is all the more impressive for the very size of the void of scoring. “The rest” Bucks submitted their participation, and then some to collect a sufficient number of crimes and close Anthony Edwards, freshly from 3 plain 40-point performances.
Now they enjoy seven days off before they organize Clippers on Thursday, February 20. In the meantime, colleagues from the team and fans can pay attention to Lillard and his pursuit of three powers in a three -point competition during all stars.
