Milwaukee Bucks' Redd Scores 57

For baseball fans, numbers over 50 take a good part of a season to acquire, so I have got to salute a member of that other Milwaukee professional athletic institution, the Milwaukee Bucks. Michael Redd scored 57 points against the Utah Jazz in a valiant effort to overcome a 24-point deficit that the Bucks were saddled with in the 2nd quarter of the game.

Redd's achievement topped the team's previous record of 55 points by a single player in a single game. The player: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. But the game ended with the Jazz in the lead, 113-111.
