MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Bucks owe much of their turnaround from a dreadful start to the way Giannis Antetokounmpo has raised his extraordinary game to an even higher level. He has three triple-doubles in the last six games he has played. Antetokounmpo had 42 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists Saturday for the highest-scoring triple-double of his career while helping the Bucks beat the Washington Wizards 124-114 on Saturday for their sixth consecutive victory.
