Antetokounmpo missed their home victory over Phoenix on Sunday with a bruised right quadriceps.<\/p>\n<p>Brook Lopez added 13 points and 10 rebounds, and Khris Middleton had 18 points off the bench. Milwaukee held Brooklyn to 42 second-half points, dealing the Nets their third straight loss and seventh in their past nine games.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the players adjusted.
