The Miami Heat’s struggles continued as they suffered a crushing 125-96 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, led by Damian Lillard’s impressive performance. Despite a rough start, the Bucks dominated the rest of the game, with Lillard finishing with 29 points, 11 assists, and nine rebounds.
The Heat’s woes began early, with the Bucks trailing 18-3 midway through the first quarter. However, Milwaukee quickly turned things around, with Lillard’s scoring and playmaking abilities proving too much for the Heat to handle.
Gary Trent Jr. also had a standout game, scoring a season-high 21 points and shooting 7 of 10 from 3-point range. The Bucks’ win marked their fifth consecutive victory, solidifying their position as a top contender in the Eastern Conference.
The loss was a disappointing one for the Heat, who have struggled to find consistency this season. With this defeat, Miami’s chances of advancing in the NBA Cup group play took a significant hit.
