Larry Sanders scored 15 points and added seven rebounds and five blocks as the Bucks outlasted the Minnesota Timberwolves 103-86 at the Target Center in Minneapolis Wednesday.
The game made NBA history as the first game ever to feature four teenage players in the starting lineup. Bucks stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker are 19, and Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine, also 19, started for Minnesota.
Antetokounmpo and Parker were among seven Bucks players in double figures. Giannis scored 13 points and added eight rebounds and four assists; Parker poured in 11 and dished out three assists of his own.
The Bucks are 9-7 with the win. If the playoffs started now, Milwaukee would hold the number four seed in the Eastern Conference.
