Pachulia Shone in Boston

20 Points of Georgian Center Brought First Victory to "Milwaukee"  in This Season

“Milwaukee Bucks” celebrated first victory in the new season of National Basketball Association (NBA) and this is a great merit of Zaza Pachulia. “Milwaukee Bucks” overcame “Celtics” 105:98 and the Georgian captain gained 20 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 1 block-shot.

Recall, that in the first match of the season “Bucks” managed to eliminate 25-points deference against “Knicks” in New York, but they lost the game anyway, and this time they were 22 points behind the opponents, but due to the great play of the Georgian they achieved success.

After promoting with 2:0 at the start of the game, Pachulia broke the ice and 43:05 seconds before the whistle he scored free throws and again led the guests forward – 99:98.

In the remaining time, Zaza made 2-pointer attack and scored another 2 free throws. In total Georgian basketball player used 10 free throws of 10 and added 5 2-pointers of 10.

It should be noted that Zaza was not in the starting lineup again, but he played really better than his competitor Larry Sanders. That is why, Larry Drew (coach of “Milwaukee”) did not replace Pachulia during the final 18 (!) minutes.

Finally, Zaza spent the most time on the field – 29:36 and during this time he never had turnovers, and he got 4 personal fouls. While Georgian player was on the field “Bucks” gained 25 points over the opponent and it is not surprising that Pachulia was named as the best player of the meeting.

The next game of “Milwaukee” will be held tomorrow morning against “Toronto Raptors”.
