The Milwaukee Bucks pulled off a huge win against the Boston Celtics.

The Milwaukee Bucks were able to snap the Boston Celtics’ five-game winning streak without their superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The Bucks had five players finish in double figures, including Kevin Porter Jr. who had a triple-double.

This was a nice win for the 11-15 Bucks, who have been overshadowed by all of the Giannis rumors as of late.

Milwaukee Bucks duo makes NBA history

Leading the way for the Bucks in this win was Kyle Kuzma who erupted to score 31 points.

Bobby Portis had a huge game as well, scoring 27 points as he and Kuzma made some NBA history in this game.

Portis and Kuzma are the first pair of teammates in NBA history to each have 25 points and 0 assists on 75 percent shooting from the field in the same game, per Nathan Marzion.

The Bucks were red-hot in this one, shooting a blistering 58.2 percent from the field and 44.8 percent from three.

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future with the Milwaukee Bucks remains uncertain

Giannis continues to be out with a calf strain as his future remains up in the air with the Bucks.

He and his agent are expected to discuss his future with the Bucks and determine what makes the most sense for his career.

All arrows point to the Greek superstar being traded, however, Giannis still has not come out and formally requested a trade.

Therefore, all the Bucks can do at this point is block out the noise and try to continue to win games.
