TODAY’S SPORTSTAT — Do you remember when the Bucks had 3 players score 25 points or more in the same game?

By JERRY TAPP

Here’s a quick trivia question for you:

The last time the Milwaukee Bucks had three players score 25 or more points in the same game was on March 9, 2012. Can you name those three players? Answer at the end of this column.

When the Bucks earlier this season acquired Eric Bledsoe from Phoenix, the hope was that he would give the Bucks a formidable “Big Three” when the Bucks were on offense. As of today, the jury is still out on whether or not that has been accomplished, but the “Big Three” is each averaging over 17 points per game: Giannis Antetokounmpo is at 27.2 points per game; Khris Middleton is averaging 19.7 per game; and Bledsoe is scoring at a 17.6 points per game clip.

Four times in Bucks history the team has had three players average 18 or more points per game (minimum of 40 games played to qualify for the list) in a season. The four times:

2001-02: Ray Allen (21.8), Sam Cassell (19.7), Glenn Robinson (20.7)

2000-01: Ray Allen (22.0), Sam Cassell (18.2), Glenn Robinson (22.0)

1999-2000: Ray Allen (22.1), Sam Cassell (18.6), Glenn Robinson (20.9)

1970-71: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (31.7), Bob Dandridge (18.40, Oscar Robertson (19.4)

Answer to the trivia question: The last three Bucks players to score 25 or more points in the same game were Mike Dunleavy (25), Ersan Ilyasova (26) and Brandon Jennings (25) on March 19, 2012.
