Lillard suffers first-half slump as new Bucks duo meets opening Waterloo

The Milwaukee Bucks lost their second game of the season on Sunday, 127-110 to the Atlanta Hawks. New teammates Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard struggled in Game 2, and the Bucks' overall performance was disappointing.

Lillard was awful in the first half, going scoreless. He missed all five of his three-point attempts and all eight of his outside shots. His performance was disappointing because he is the Bucks' second leading scorer.

Antetokounmpo had a great first half with 19 points and 10 rebounds. However, his performance dipped in the second half and he only scored 10 points.

The overall performance of the Bucks was also disappointing. They struggled on the defensive end, as the Hawks shot 55.6 percent from the field in the first half.

The loss was a setback for the Bucks to start the season. They had a great preseason, but will need time to gel with their new lineup once the regular season begins.
