GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) --- The second game in as many days favored visiting Milwaukee, as Green Bay was unable to keep pace down the stretch and fell to the Panthers, 74-62.
 
Amari Davis led all scorers on the afternoon with 21 points and had another impressive outing from long range, going 3-of-4 for a combined 7-of-9 performance from deep on the weekend.
 
The Panthers used a 13-1 run which spanned over six minutes late in the second half to build a 14-point lead, 65-51, with only 2:44 remaining.
 
GB tried to battle back as time dwindled away, but Milwaukee converted on seven of its final eight attempts from the charity stripe to secure a 74-62 win.
 
Josh Jefferson secured his streak of double-figure scoring games, which is now at a perfect six on the season, with 12-point performance in 26 minutes. PJ Pipes also recorded a double-digit outing with 13 points.
 
Free throws favored the visitors as MKE went 18-for-23 at the line while GB finished 11-of-17.

Despite the weekend sweep, the Phoenix has a lead in the all-time series with the Panthers at 40-28 and has won eight of the last 12 pairings.
 
Green Bay returns to the hardwood for back-to-back games with preseason favorite Wright State on Dec. 26 and 27.
