Milwaukee actually led for the majority of this game, with Memphis never leading by more than one point.

Milwaukee (5 - 4) is quietly playing some great ball and it's the shoulders of Giannis Antetokounmpo whose carrying them there. Antetokounmpo stuffed the stat sheet in this win, accumulating 27 points, six rebounds, five assists, four steals and four blocks.
