The Milwaukee Bucks overcame a sluggish start and a 14-point deficit to defeat the Sacramento Kings, 114-108, in a comeback win on Sunday (PHL).

Giannis Antetokounmpo powered the rally with 32 points and 17 rebounds, while Brook Lopez contributed 21 points.

Kevin Porter Jr. added a spark off the bench with 18 points as the Bucks used a dominant second half to flip the game in their favor.

 


 

Sacramento, which led for much of the first half, got 22 points from DeMar DeRozan and 20 from Zach LaVine, but the Kings faltered down the stretch.

With the win, Milwaukee improved to 40-30 and solidified its hold on fifth place in the Eastern Conference.

Meanwhile, Sacramento dropped to 35-35 and remains in ninth place in the Western Conference standings.
