Jason Kidd praises "aggressive" Ersan Ilyasova

Jason Kidd has praised Ersan Ilyasova for his "aggressive" shooting performance during the Milwaukee Bucks' win over the Indiana Pacers.

The forward scored a career-high 34 during the 111-107 victory, which keeps the team sixth in the Eastern Conference standings.

The coach told ESPN: "He was cooking. He was aggressive, he took open shots, he just didn't settle. He also put the ball on the floor. Everything that he shot pretty much went in.

"We've had big leads, we've lost leads, we keep fighting to find a way to get back to the lead then understand we had to get a stop. I thought the last play was big."

The Bucks are in action again tomorrow evening when they face the Golden State Warriors.
