That was an absolutely PERFECT debut for Dame Lillard in Milwaukee. 39 points including 14 points in the 4th quarter to close out the game. He hit every big shot and took pressure off of Giannis. The Bucks have the closer they’ve needed for years. #FearTheDeer — Emmanuel Acho (@EmmanuelAcho) October 27, 2023
