TEAM LEADERS

WARRIORS OFFENSIVE WOES
While the effort was there, the shots were just not falling for the Warriors who went 34.7 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from 3-point range. The Dubs’ shooting woes combined with the Bucks’ hot start had the squad down by 39 points at halftime, with the Warriors unable to work their way back in the second half despite outscoring the Bucks in both the third (34-20) and fourth quarter (27-21). Andrew Wiggins recorded a team-high 16 points while Klay Thompson splashed a pair of treys on his way to 11 points in 21 minutes of play.

ANOTHER NIGHT, ANOTHER MILESTONE
Stephen Curry finished with 12 points, eight rebounds and four assists and notched another milestone, becoming the second player in franchise history to compete in 800 career regular-season games.

KUMINGA'S ROOKIE WORK
Warriors rookie Jonathan Kuminga tallied 15 points and seven rebounds in 19 minutes of play. The outing marked a first for the forward, who posted double-figures in back-to-back games for the first time in his career.
