6 years agoMilwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez is currently playing his best basketball of the season. Lopez has scored in double-figures in a season-high five straight games after putting up 19 points on 7-for-15 shooting from the field, which includes going 3-for-10 from beyond the arc in Friday's victory over the Cavaliers. The 30-year-old has now made a three-pointer in nine straight games and blocked at least one shot in 10 consecutive contests. He is currently averaging 14 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.1 blocks, and one assist along with 2.9 three-pointers while shooting 43.9 percent from the field and 37.7 percent from beyond the arc in December. Lopez, who compiled six points along with eight rebounds and three blocked shots in 26 minutes against the Pistons on Dec. 5, will look to continue his solid play against Detroit on Monday. The Pistons are among the worst teams defending opposing centers in the league, but they have done a much better job recently.--Daniel Benjamin
