The Jazz beat the Bucks 123–108 after a big comeback in the fourth quarter.

He scored 21 points, which helped the Utah Jazz beat the Milwaukee Bucks 123–108 on Sunday night. The Jazz are now 3-1 after Collin Sexton made 19 points in their win. K. George scored 19 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, and John Collins scored 15 points and grabbed 10 rebounds.

In the fourth quarter, the Jazz beat the Bucks 40–13. Utah scored 15 points off of seven turnovers in the last 1½ quarters of play. Also, in the last 12 minutes, the Jazz only let four baskets go through.

Markkanen said, “We were getting stops, so it gives us a chance to score.” It’s easy to see offense and defense as two separate things, but they work together very well. You get stops, run, and then get good shots.

The Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 33 points, passed the ball 13 times, and grabbed seven rebounds. He added 27 points, and Malik Beasley scored 16.

While Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton were out, Damian Lillard scored 12 points, had six assists, and blocked two shots, which was the most of the season.

Utah turned the ball over 16 times, which led to 19 points for the Bucks. Utah didn’t give up a point until the end of the third quarter. It all fell apart in the fourth quarter when Milwaukee couldn’t make a shot for a considerable amount of time.

Antetokounmpo said, “I don’t think it was nerves; I think we’re going to make shots.” “We missed a lot of easy shots.” Once you make a few, the momentum stops, and the game changes completely.

Utah came back from being 19 points behind in the fourth quarter to win. The Jazz went on a 19-3 run that put them ahead 104-102 with 6:26 left.

Kelly Olynyk or Markkanen scored back-to-back three-pointers to start the run. Markkanen made a second 3-pointer that put the game ahead to end the rally.

It was only for a short time before the Jazz took the lead for good after Antetokounmpo made a layup.

With a little over thirty seconds left, Utah had a 123-108 lead thanks to six straight baskets, two of which were made by George.

Doc Rivers, the coach of the Bucks, said, “We couldn’t script better shots.” “Every shot had been wide open, but all of them went off the front rim.”

“We knew they played yesterday, so we tried to speed things up and put a little more pressure on them,” Sexton said.

For only the second time this season, the Bucks lost the second game in a back-to-back set. In the last few minutes, they couldn’t handle Utah’s depth.

To start the second quarter, AJ Green, Cameron Payne, and Jae Crowder made four 3-pointers between them. This helped Milwaukee go on a 19-2 run.

During the run, Antetokounmpo made a running layup that gave the Bucks a 45-34 lead. In the initial five minutes of the quarter, Utah missed eight out of nine field goals and turned the ball over four times.

Before halftime, Antetokounmpo knocked in a layup that made Milwaukee’s lead 61–42. This was the last of six consecutive possessions in which the Bucks scored.

It was 108-98 on Wednesday night, and Paolo Banchero hit 25 points and Franz Wagner added 20. The Orlando Magic clung on to win.

The Spurs have lost their last two games. Devin Vassell scored 26 points while Victor Wembanyama scored 21.

In the last quarter, San Antonio was down by 25 points, but they went on a 15-0 run that took 3:38 and brought them within three points, 99-96.

In the last three minutes, though, the Spurs turned the ball over three times, and the Magic stopped the rally.
