The Milwaukee Bucks narrowly defeated the Houston Rockets 101-100 on Monday night. Following the win, the team announced the assignment of several players to the G League, including AJ Johnson, Chris Livingston, and Tyler Smith, who will play with the Wisconsin Herd.

Brook Lopez was a standout performer, scoring 27 points and contributing significantly on both ends of the court. Despite the victory, the Bucks have struggled early in the season, holding a 5-9 record and sitting at 12th in the Eastern Conference.

They will look to build on this win as they prepare to face the Chicago Bulls next.
