The Milwaukee Bucks suffered a 132-100 loss to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night at Fiserv Forum, marking their first four-game defeat of the 2026-27 NBA season. Coach Taylor Jenkins acknowledged that his team was not well-prepared for the game, and the Bucks struggled offensively, shooting just 39.6% from the field and 27.5% from three-point range.
Tyler Herro, the Bucks' leading scorer, put up 23 points, three rebounds, and four three-pointers on 9-for-13 shooting from the field in 27 minutes. However, his solid performance was not enough to turn the tide for the team. Herro addressed his teammates after the loss, emphasizing the need for improvement and a learning experience for all players.
Young rookie Brayden Burries played significant minutes in the second half after the game had already been decided. Despite a subpar first-half performance, Burries finished the game with 10 points and five rebounds on 3-for-6 shooting. Head coach Taylor Jenkins praised Burries for his poise and ability to trust his work, even if he struggled in the first half.
