Kevin Porter Jr. led the Bucks with 25 points (8-of-15 FGs, 8-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, 10 assists, two blocks and one three-pointer in a 123-116 loss to the Cavaliers on Tuesday.
After missing Sunday’s game against the Pacers, which was the second night of a back-to-back, KPJ returned to take on Cleveland. He had his first double-double and highest-scoring performance of the month, though it wasn’t enough to get the win over his former team. Still, it was a strong outing for KPJ and his best since he returned from a four-game absence with the knee injury. He’ll look to stay hot in Utah on Thursday.
