Bucks don’t stop, win their 13th in row

-

The Bucks’ Giannis Antetokoun­mpo scored 35 points in Milwaukee’s 127-103 win over the Pistons — its 13th consecutiv­e victory — Wednesday in Detroit.

The last time the Bucks had a longer winning streak was when they won 16 in a row spanning the end of the 1972-73 season and the beginning of 1973-74.

They also had a 13-game run shortly after that 16-game streak ended.

The Bucks have dominated Detroit of late. Milwaukee won all eight matchups with the Pistons last season. The Bucks also beat Detroit last month in their first meeting of 2019-20.
