DETROIT — The Pistons hosted a Milwaukee Bucks team without two of their best players on Monday night, which would typically mean a greater chance to escape with a victory.
However, that wasn't the case because Milwaukee still had an All-Star caliber player in their starting lineup by the name of Khris Middleton, who was drafted by the Pistons in 2012.
Bucks starters Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jrue Holiday were ruled out shortly before tipoff, but it was Middleton, who scored 34 points to lead the Bucks to a 126-117 victory at Little Caesars Arena.
