Bucks Extend Winning Streak, Beat Hornets 125-119

LaMelo Ball made history by scoring a career-high 50 points, becoming the third-youngest player in NBA history to achieve this milestone, but the Charlotte Hornets fell short against the Milwaukee Bucks, losing 125-119. Ball's performance included an explosive second half where he scored 40 points, while Brandon Miller contributed 32 points. The Bucks, led by Giannis Antetokounmpo's 32 points and Damian Lillard's 31, maintained control of the game, pulling ahead with a strong fourth quarter. Despite a late surge from the Hornets, Milwaukee's lead remained intact as they completed a successful 4-0 homestand. This game marks Ball's resurgence after a benching in a previous match, as he has averaged 42.5 points over his last two games. The Hornets will look to bounce back as they host the Orlando Magic next.
