A starting lineup shake-up didn’t snap the Milwaukee Bucks to life as the Denver Nuggets rolled to a 110-98 victory at the BMO Harris Bradley Center Wednesday night.
The visitors jumped out to a 32-15 lead after the first quarter and were up 26 at the break before a late Bucks rally came up short.
Malcolm Brogdon and Rasheed Vaughn were inserted into the starting five but the results weren’t there as the Bucks lost for the fourth time in their last five games.
Khris Middleton led with 21 while Brogdon added 17. Milwaukee (26-32) resumes a three game homestand hosting the Los Angeles Clippers Friday night.
