The Milwaukee Bucks are on a two-game losing streak for the first time all season after going down to the lowly Phoenix Suns on Monday by a final score of 114-105. Milwaukee has the best record in the NBA, but they somehow went 0-2 against the Suns this year.

Bucks superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is an MVP candidate this season, vows Milwaukee will bounce back from this mini slump.

“We (will) bounce back like we always do – go get the next one, get back on track vs. Indiana,” Antetokounmpo said, via Matt Velazquez of USA TODAY Sports. “It’s kind of hard to take in that we lost to Phoenix twice, but at the end of the day, they played better than us.

“We’ve got to do a better job just closing out the game. We cannot be messing around with the game. We did it the last two games – we did it in Utah, we did it (Monday). We’ve just got to learn from it.”
