Giannis Antetokounmpo had 21 points, six rebounds and four assists for Milwaukee.
   
BUCKS: Jabari Parker had 18 points and four rebounds. ... Greg Monroe scored 12 points, but was just 6 for 19 from the field coming off the bench. ... Matthew Dellavedova, in line to play an even bigger role with Michael Carter-Williams traded to Chicago, scored just two points on 1-for-7 shooting in 27 minutes.
   
PISTONS: Rookie Henry Ellenson scored 14 points, grabbed five rebounds and hit all three of his 3-pointers in 23 minutes. ... The Pistons made 13 of 27 3s, outscoring Milwaukee by 27 points from behind the arc. ... Andre Drummond had 12 points and 13 boards in 18 minutes and has made the Pistons look awfully smart for paying him the big money over Monroe, who has not panned out in Milwaukee.
