Multiple players from the Bucks reacted to facing Khris Middleton in a Wizards jersey, Kyle Kuzma offers great defensive value to the team, and more.

Khris Middleton talks about his trade from the Bucks, understanding the move, trying to get healthy and appreciating Milwaukee.

With a strong contest from Kyle Kuzma, Middleton missed the off-balance 3-pointer that would have tied the game, just as Antetokounmpo — for the first time in his NBA career — had hoped and Milwaukee pulled out a 104-101 victory over Washington. The Bucks’ third consecutive win moved them within a half-game of the Pacers for the East’s No. 4 seed.
