WASHINGTON (AP) — Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 23 points, had a season-high 13 assists and grabbed 10 rebounds for his fourth triple-double of the season as the NBA-leading Milwaukee Bucks outlasted the Washington Wizards 117-111.

Jevon Carter added 20 points while shooting 6 of 10 from beyond the arc, and Jrue Holiday scored 19 in Milwaukee's victory a night after a home loss to Philadelphia snapped a 16-game win streak.

Bradley Beal scored 33 points for the Wizards, who remain 10th in the East and in line for the final play-in game spot.
