Giannis Antetokounmpo had 24 points, 12 rebounds and nine assists, and the Milwaukee Bucks snapped a three-game skid with a 126-106 victory over the short-handed Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night.

Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard credited Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic for his ability to 'manipulate' games.

The Bucks allowed Doncic to go off for 45 points, which was the most he scored in a Lakers uniform. But with 23 points chipped in from veteran big Brook Lopez along with four blocks, the Bucks were able to get a much-needed win. After the game, Lillard took some time during his media session to heap big-time praise on the Slovenian superstar.
