Jordan Nwora career highs and double-double not enough as Bucks fall to Cavs

Jordan Nwora posted a double-double and career highs but wasn’t enough as Milwaukee Bucks suffered a 119-90 loss to Cleveland Cavaliers.

With all of Bucks regular starters missing again.

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Donte DiVincenzo, Wesley Matthews and Bobby Portis are in the NBA’s health and safety protocols and unavailable. 

Khris Middleton remained sidelined due to a hyperextended left knee, while guards Grayson Allen and Jrue Holiday, though not inactive, were held out after playing extensive minutes in a loss Friday night at New Orleans.

Jordan Nwora stepped up and made the most of the chance given to him.

He finished with 28 points on 11-of-21 including 4-of-8 from three, 11 rebounds for his double-double.

Jordan added career highs 4 assists and 4 3s made which he has done four times.
