(Milwaukee, WI) — The Milwaukee Bucks will play their final game before the All-Star break tonight (Thursday), when they host the Washington Wizards.
With all but ten of their final 29 games at home, the Bucks still hope they can sneak into an N-B-A playoff spot. Milwaukee is now 14-and-eight at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, where they beat Boston by one point on Tuesday night.
The Bucks are six games behind Charlotte for the eighth-and-final slot in the Eastern Conference, while the Wizards are two-and-a-half back for that same playoff spot.
Wizards’ guard John Wall is third in the N-B-A in assists with just under ten per game, and he had 17 assists and 28 points on Tuesday night when Washington edged the Knicks in New York by three points.
