The New York Knicks will be getting a visit from the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday afternoon. The Knicks will be looking to exact some revenge as they were beaten 101-98 when they visited BMO Harris Bradley Center in early Feb. Brandon Knight led the way for the Bucks with 25 points, three rebounds and seven assists in the tight victory. Knight had a heck of a night and was responsible for closing this game out. Knight scored the Bucks' final five points and knocked down a 3-pointer with 1.4 seconds left to win the game in regulation. Knight had help from Khris Middleton who tallied 19 points, four rebounds and three assists. Giannis "The Greek Freak" Antetokounmpo added 15 points on 5-of-9 shooting.
Milwaukee was up 50-43 at the half and kept the lead for the rest of the game. New York made a run in the fourth quarter after being down 10 points and tied the game up before Knight ended this one. New York had plenty of opportunities to win this one but the Bucks combined to go 11-of-18 from behind the arc. The Knicks shot only 62.5 percent from the free throw line. Carmelo Anthony played a good game going for 36 points on 13-of-25 shooting. He also added five rebounds and three assists. J.R. Smith added 30 points, seven rebounds and three assists in the loss.
