Bucks Stock Market: The champs have a winning record again!

Another day, another Bucks game that was way closer than it should have been.

The Bucks Stock Market is a fictitious market run by the GSPN crew that tracks player stock “movement” following the conclusion of every game. Here’s the spreadsheet logging the game-by-game results.

For the second time in as many nights, the Milwaukee Bucks won a game after blowing a substantial lead in the second half. Turns out, the veteran players on the Magic are better than their inexperienced starters, which is why the aforementioned lead was blown. However, a win is win at the end of the day, and a win is what the Bucks got. Let’s talk movements!

Bobby Portis📈

BOBBY, BOBBY, BOBBY! Saturday’s game was a perfect example of why Portis is so valuable to this team. On any given night, he has the potential to take over offensively like he did tonight. 24 points on 15 shots including 6-7 from deep while also pulling in 13 rebounds? It was just a *chef’s kiss* night.

Giannis Antetokounmpo📈

Even though Mo Bamba has had a great season and looks to have dramatically improved his future outlook, he was no match for the brilliance of Giannis. After missing out on a 20-20 game by one rebound last night, Giannis accomplished the task tonight with an emphatic 31-20 line, with 5 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks in tow. The MVP agenda grows stronger and stronger…

Milwaukee’s next game also comes against the Orlando Magic, as the Bucks play the fourth game of their five-game home stand on Monday.
