The Charlotte Hornets fell just short on Wednesday night to the Milwaukee Bucks, 127-125, in what was a terrific finish.
Charlotte got out to a 16-point lead after the first quarter but the Bucks rallied in the second and third quarters to take the lead going into the fourth. LaMelo Ball hit a 28-footer to tie the game with just under six seconds remaining, which was followed up by a game-winning layup from Giannis.
LaMelo was fantastic in the loss, finishing with 36 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists, and 3 steals on 12-of-22 shooting from the field and 8-of-15 from 3-point land.
Kelly Oubre Jr. dropped 25 points off the bench on 9-of-14 shooting from the field and 5-of-9 from downtown.
