Eric Bledsoe scored six of his 26 points, a top in the game, in the second quarter, allowing the Milwaukee Bucks to take a double-digit lead for a shocking win of 134. -111 on the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 24 points and Malcolm Brogdon 20 for the Bucks, who had lost two of three after a 7-0 start.

Klay Thompson dominated Golden State with 24 points on an evening when teammate Stephen Curry missed his four-point attempts and was held 10 points. Curry definitely left the game in the third quarter due to a left adductor strain.

The defeat broke Golden State's eight-game winning streak and was their first home defeat this season.

A three-pointer from Thompson allowed the Warriors to score between 40 and 39 minutes in the fifth minute of the second quarter, before the Bucks used a 15-2 burst to flee. Bledsoe had two hoops and two free throws in the race, while Pat Connaughton contributed four points.

The Bucks led by no less than 15 in the second quarter, then 105 to 79 after three before heading home.

Khris Middleton earned 17 points and Connaughton 15 for the Bucks, who won the game despite a 9-point win over 35 (25.7%) at three points.

Antetokounmpo also had nine rebounds, a top in the match, which allowed Milwaukee to win its second consecutive Golden State season.

Houston Rocks 80-98 Thunder from Oklahoma City

2:01

Paul George produced 20 points and 11 rebounds as the Oklahoma City Thunder won his seventh consecutive game, beating the Houston Rockets 98-80 on Thursday night.

The loss ended a series of three straight wins at the Rockets, led by James Harden's 19 points. But Harden only managed seven of the 19 shots on the ground and four of his 12 attempts behind the three-point line.

The 80 points scored by Houston were the lowest for an NBA team this season.

Steven Adams added 19 points and 10 rebounds for the Thunder, while Terrance Ferguson scored four points at three points to score 14 points.

Both teams struggled to get behind the three-point line. Oklahoma City shot 9 out of 37 (24.3%) from outside the arc, while Houston was 11th out of 42 (26.2%).

The Thunder were stripped of Russell Westbrook for the second consecutive game after All-Star guard sprained their ankle in Monday's win over the New Orleans Pélicans.

But while the Thunder seemed lost at times without Westbrook in the first two games of the season as the leader came back from a knee surgery, Oklahoma City used the defense's intensity to find the way to win without him this time, limiting to 37.8% shot from the field.
