Middleton on how it feels to be back since his trade to Washington
Former Milwaukee Buck and current Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton on how it feels to be back for the first time as a member of another team
It’s still baseball season in Canada.
Because of Game 1 of the World Series between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers, the start time for the Milwaukee Bucks-Toronto Raptors game Oct. 24 has been moved up from 7 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Central time.
While it’s not exactly day basketball, it’s an unorthodox time to begin a game on a Friday.
If the Bucks continue to get the type of balanced production they got in their season opener against the Washington Wizards — seven players scored in double figures in Milwaukee’s 133-120 victory Oct. 22 — the time change shouldn’t be much of an issue.
They may need a similar effort in their matchup in Toronto. The Raptors shot 56.8% in a 138-118 win over the Atlanta Hawks, setting a team record for points in a season opener despite being away from home. The Raptors also had seven players in double figures.
