Bucks look to bounce back Monday against Jazz, after Giannis lashes out at entire organization, including equipment manager
The Milwaukee Bucks look to bounce back from three losses in their past four games, when they host the Utah Jazz on Monday.
Expectations are a Bucks win, but that could have been said Saturday night in a game at Houston, which Milwaukee lost 112-108.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 48 points, 17 rebounds and was 16 of 25 from the field in that one. It was the second-consecutive game in which he’s scored over 40.
But the two-time MVP lashed out at literally everyone in the organization, from the equipment manager to the front office.
“We have to be better,” the 29-year-old two-time MVP said. “We have to play better. We have to defend better. We have to trust one another better. We have to be coached better. Every single thing, everybody has to be better. Everybody.
“It starts from the equipment manager. He has to wash our clothes better. The bench has to be better. The leaders of the team have to be more vocal. We have to make more shots. We have to defend better. We have to have better strategy. We have to be better… We have four months to get better, so let’s see.”
