Tim Duncan scored 24 points and had 12 rebounds as the San Antonio Spurs beat Milwaukee 112-98 on Monday to end the Bucks’ three game winning streak.
Reserve Matt Bonner chipped in with 23 points, including six 3-pointers, as the Spurs managed made it back to back wins to improve to 6-6 this season. Turkish star Ersan İlyasova top scored for Milwaukee (8-4) with 20 points while rookie Brandon Jennings added 12, well down on his 25.3 season average and his 55-point haul against the Golden State Warriors earlier this month but that was not enough to save the Bucks from defeat “We’re moving the ball really well. We have really good shooters and when we can get those guys open shots it’s best for us,” Spurs star Duncan told reporters.
