Giannis notches 50th career T-D, leads Bucks in toppling Kings

Associated Press

MILWAUKEE—Giannis Antetokounmpo had 30 points, 13 assists and 11 rebounds for his 50th career triple-double and led the Bucks to a 130-115 win over Sacramento that snapped the Kings’ seven-game winning streak on Tuesday night.

Antetokounmpo’s triple-double was his fifth of the season. He had a sixth in the Bucks’ NBA Cup championship victory over Oklahoma City, but players’ statistics from that game aren’t official.

Damian Lillard had 24 points, Brook Lopez 21 and AJ Green 16 for the Bucks, who never trailed and led by as many as 28.

DeMar DeRozan scored 28, De’Aaron Fox 20 and Keon Ellis 16 for Sacramento. Domantas Sabonis had 16 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists.
