Both the New York Knicks and Milwaukee Bucks lost on Sunday for the first time this season, and now they’ll face off on Tuesday night in Milwaukee. Giannis Ante

MILWAUKEE — For much of the night the game had been a duel between Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jalen Brunson, the two All-NBA players dragging their teams to the fourth quarter.

Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks fell to Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks, 121–111, on the road Tuesday, dropping to 2–2 on the season.

The New York Knicks face the Milwaukee Bucks in a regular season NBA game on Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2025 (10/28/25) at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisc.

In a contrast that defined the Knicks defeat Tuesday night, Giannis Antetokounmpo played like a superstar and Karl-Anthony Towns played like he didn’t belong on the same court.

Knicks head coach Mike Brown knows his team is still settling in after losing to the Bucks on the road on Tuesday night.

The Knicks and Bucks make their final injury reports, which determine the game status for Karl-Anthony Towns and Kyle Kuzma.

Mike Brown was hired to fix these things. We're still very early in the season, but the returns thus far have been promising. Through three games, 11 different Knicks had played at least 28 total minutes.
