Dec 12 (Reuters) - Golden State's record 24-game winning streak to start the season came to an end on Saturday in a 108-95 loss to the Bucks in Milwaukee.
A night after barely beating Boston in double overtime, the weary National Basketball Association champions succumbed in Milwaukee in the final game of a seven-game road trip.
Golden State's winning streak, the longest to start a season in NBA history, is the third longest in a single season behind the Los Angeles Lakers, who won 33 in a row in 1971-72, while the Miami Heat won 27 straight in 2013.
The Bucks also stopped the Lakers' winning steak in 1972.
Stretching back to the end of last season, Golden State won 28 consecutive regular season games.
The normally sharp-shooting Warriors struggled offensively, shooting barely 40 percent from the floor, with guards Stephen Curry (10-for-21 for 28 points) and Klay Thompson (four-for-14 for 12 points) struggling to find their range.
Milwaukee improved to 10-15 with the win.
