MILWAUKEE -- It was the Giannis and Jabari show Thursday night for the Milwaukee Bucks.Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 30 points and Parker added 28 in leading Milwaukee to a 108-97 victory over the Chicago Bulls.Milwaukee led the entire game and held a 24-point advantage early in the fourth quarter but had to hold on to snap a three-game losing streak, its longest of the season.Antetokounmpo has totaled 88 points and 35 rebounds in his last three games, and Parker has reached at least 27 points in four of his past five.If were just being judged on points, then theyre playing really well, Bucks coach Jason Kidd said. But its not all about points. Unfortunately, thats all you guys write about. Its a team game, but it comes down to winning and doing your job. Both of those guys did their jobs tonight.Chicago lost for the fifth time in seven games and dropped its third straight on the road despite 21 points from Jimmy Butler and 20 from Dwyane Wade. The Bulls also got 19 points from Taj Gibson in the opener of a home-and-home between the teams on back-to-back nights.The Bucks went up 95-71 on a dunk by Antetokounmpo with 10:01 remaining. Chicago cut the deficit in half by scoring the next 12 points, with 10 of them coming from Wade. His two free throws trimmed the margin to 95-83 with 7:14 to go.Milwaukee led by at least eight the rest of the way, marking just the second time this season the Bucks never trailed in a game.I think everybody did a great job keeping the lead, Antetokounmpo said. Its hard to keep a lead for 24 minutes, for a half. Its hard sometimes.The Bucks biggest lead of the night was 27 on a dunk by Tony Snell that made it 58-31 with 3:40 left in the second quarter.The advantage was 64-45 at halftime, as Antetokounmpo (20), Parker (17) and Mirza Teletovic (10) combined to outscore Chicago by two points.Milwaukee shot 80 percent (8 for 10) from 3-point range while Chicago was 1 for 9 (11.1 percent) from beyond the arc in the first two quarters.They were too comfortable early, Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg said. We didnt want to give them dare shots, we wanted to keep them out of the paint, and they were hitting them.TIP-INSBulls: Rajan Rondo returned to the starting lineup after missing Tuesdays game against Minnesota because of a right ankle sprain. ...

Dover Motorsports has agreed to sell the closed Nashville Superspeedway to California-based real estate development company Panattoni Development Company for $44.7 million.The closing of the sale of the 1,380-acre property should take place by the end of March 2017, according to Dover filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.Panattoni will pay Dover $27.5 million in cash and assume the bond obligation, which has a current principal balance of $17.2 million.Dover estimates that net proceeds from the sale will be approximately $21-22 million after income taxes and settlement adjustments.The 1.333-mile concrete track located about 35 miles from Nashville in Lebanon, Tennessee, opened in 2001 and played host to NASCAR Xfinity Series and Camping World Truck Series races until Dover opted not to seek sanctions for those events in 2012.Panattoni is not in the business of operating racetracks, but it does not plan to rip apart the site the first day it closes the deal, said Panattoni partner Whitfield Hamilton,, who handles the companys Southeast acquisitions.ddddddddddddWere not pursuing it as a racetrack, Hamilton said. Were industrial developers who want to turn this into a world-class logistics and distribution park thats along the lines with other parks weve done.The company already has projects ongoing in the Nashville area and recently completed a distribution for Under Armour in nearby Mount Juliet.Its such a big site and such an incredible facility, we dont have to start right there at the racetrack with what we do, Hamilton said. Well probably leave it for some period of time. ... Well leave the door open to see if something good can happen. Maybe it does. We dont necessarily have anything directly working on the race front.Dover had agreed to sell the track in 2014 to technology entrepreneurial company NeXovation for virtually the same terms, but the company defaulted on the payments.
