The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder, 133-86, at Fiserv Forum on Friday evening.

The Thunder jumped out to good start with an early 8-2 lead, but the Bucks were quick to gain control, as they took their first lead four minutes into the contest and held it the rest of the way, for the dominant home win. Despite missing their second-highest scorer, Khris Middleton (neck), the Bucks had no trouble filling the basket, as they shot 50 percent from the field, including 21-of-45 from long range. Meanwhile, the Thunder struggled under the mite of the Bucks' defense, as they shot 36 percent from the field, including just 6-of-35 from deep. The Thunder were without Danilo Gallinari (ankle), who is a one of their top offensive threats.

Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 32 points, 13 rebounds and six assists, in 27 minutes. Wesley Matthews added 14 points, six rebounds and three assists, while George Hill added 14 points, six assists, five rebounds and a steal. The Bucks had a total of 12 players score at least five points in the contest.

Chris Paul led the Thunder with 18 points, five assists, three rebounds and a steal, in 27 minutes. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was the only other player to score in double digits for the Thunder, as he finished with 11 points, in 27 minutes. Steven Adams had a quiet night, with eight points, seven rebounds, three assists and a steal, while Dennis Schroder and Abdel Nader chipped in nine points each.

The Thunder (37-23) will look to bounce back as they play host to the Clippers on Tuesday. The Bucks (51-8) take on the Hornets in Charlotte on Sunday.
