Bucks dominate Grizzlies in Milwaukee
Game recap
On Sunday, April 5, the Milwaukee Bucks seized a decisive 131‑115 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies at Fiserv Forum. The Bucks built an early lead with a 7‑for‑12 three‑point shooting stretch in the opening quarter and never relinquished control. By halftime they held an 18‑point edge, and the margin stretched to 14 points in the final minutes.
Key performances
Bucks guard Ryan Rollins led the way with 24 points, while the team’s depth compensated for several absences. Memphis rookie Rayan Rupert posted a career‑high triple‑double—30 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists—yet the effort was insufficient as the Grizzlies struggled to answer Milwaukee’s firepower.
Injury landscape
Both squads entered the game shorthanded. The Grizzlies were without several front‑court regulars, relying on GG Jackson and Jahmai Mashack despite minor injuries. The Bucks also missed key contributors, forcing role players to shoulder additional responsibilities.
What’s next
The win lifts Milwaukee to 30‑47, keeping modest playoff hopes alive, while Memphis remains stuck in a seven‑game road skid at 25‑52. The matchup was broadcast nationally on NBA TV and streamed via the league’s official platforms, making it widely accessible to fans across the country.
