Eric Bledsoe Ejected As Bucks Clinch Best Record In NBA
The Milwaukee Bucks clinched the best record in the NBA after beating the Philadelphia 76ers 128-122.
Giannis Antetokounmpo finished the game with 45 points, 13 rebounds, and 6 assists.
"Yeah, that felt like a statement," said Mike Budenholzer after the game.
Eric Bledsoe was ejected less than 3 minutes into the game after getting into a confrontation with Joel Embiid.
"That's unfortunate. Neither team wants to have somebody missing, whether it's injury or somebody getting thrown out. Hopefully we'll be smarter and better for it as a team. [Bledsoe] will be smarter and better for it. He was the first guy greeting his teammates and being there for them when they came in. So maybe it's better that it happens now than another time," added Budenholzer.
