BROOKLYN, N.Y. — On Monday night, former President Bill Clinton watched the Milwaukee Bucks dispatch the Brooklyn Nets 113-94 at Barclays Center.
After the game, Clinton swooned over Brook Lopez, Giannis Antetokounmpo, George Hill and the general makeup of the team.

"I like Brook Lopez a lot," Clinton said. The former president is a fan of the Nets, the team he watched Lopez begin his career with in 2008 when it was still the New Jersey Nets.
When asked about Antetokounmpo, Clinton said, "He's unbelievable. He's really come into his own this year. I love to watch him."
Clinton went on to compliment the Bucks on how they've added talent around Antetokounmpo, focusing on Hill.
"George Hill is reliable. He's a great team player that adds value to every place he's ever played."
The Bucks made a ton of moves in the offseason to improve the depth around their franchise player. At 39-13, it appears the team's plan is working to perfection.
