Bucks Lose to Wizards; Double-Digit Lead Slips Away
Washington Wizards overcame a double-digit deficit with clutch 3-pointers from CJ McCollum and Khris Middleton and a late steal-and-dunk by Bilal Coulibaly to win.
- Dec. 1, the Washington Wizards rallied to beat the Milwaukee Bucks 129-126 at Capital One Arena, Washington, D.C., overcoming a 16-point third-quarter deficit.
- Milwaukee led 81-65 in the third before Kevin Porter Jr.'s back-to-back 3s helped push the Bucks' advantage, but Washington mounted a 26-8 run that tied the game late in the quarter.
- CJ McCollum's late 3 shifted the lead as he scored 28 points and hit a go-ahead 3 with 14.4 seconds left, while Bilal Coulibaly's steal-and-dunk with 5.4 seconds left forced Giannis Antetokounmpo's sixth foul.
- The loss dropped Milwaukee Bucks to 9-13 while Washington improved to 3-16 and Porter exited with a lower back spasm, raising injury concerns.
