The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Denver Nuggets 120-109. The Bucks have now extended their win streak to six games in a row. They are feeling more and more comfortable as each game passes. They are beginning to hit their stride. Bucks Guard Jrue Holiday has been one of the catalysts for the winning streak and spoke postgame on the team’s mindset.

“I can’t really give a reason why, I just feel like it’s just comfortable,” Holiday, who had 16 points, said of the fast starts to games. “It’s like that first game when we came out it felt comfortable playing with everybody being back on the court. We went through some struggles and that helped us to kind of find a place.”
