1987 Ussr NT basketball tour in Usa

As the Cold War neared its end, the Soviet Union’s basketball team traveled to America for an exhibition event which saw them go head-to-head with the Milwaukee Bucks. As for the game itself, which was televised on ABC, a competitive start quickly gave way to a blowout as the Soviets had no answer for Milwaukee’s vastly superior defense. The USSR produced a remarkable 17 first half turnovers, and 24 overall, as the Bucks applied the kind of pressure they were likely completely unfamiliar with. For the Bucks, Jerry Reynolds led the way with 24 points and seven assists, while Jack Sikma and Paul Pressey also put it up to the visitors. Cummings would eventually be named as the competition’s inaugural MVP. When all was said and done, Milwaukee prevailed with a resounding 127-100 victory. Rather than cause for celebration, the Bucks were left with a great sense of relief, though.
