## Resource

Could this possibly be a glimmer of hope for the Milwaukee Bucks? After a humbling loss to the Washington Wizards on New Year's Eve, Milwaukee has won two straight and four of five as it looks to right the ship and move toward a playoff spot in a friendly Eastern Conference. Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski and host JR Radcliffe discuss where this team stands after a brutal stretch without Giannis Antetokounmpo, how things shape up in the conference now that he's back and the vibes in the locker room. They discuss his comments after the Wizards loss, check in on his cloudy future in Milwaukee, discuss the upcoming trade deadline, Doc Rivers and Myles Turner. Music intro produced by Olivia Reiner and voiced by Michelle Rutkowski.
