Nets outlast Bucks in triple OT, Pachulia hauls in 18 offensive rebounds

Zaza Pachulia was a beast on the offensive glass for the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night.

Pachulia tied a modern-day record - set by Charles Barkley in 1986 and then Dennis Rodman in 1992 - by grabbing 18 offensive rebounds. But in the end it wasn't enough, as the Brooklyn Nets outlasted the Bucks 128-127 in triple overtime. 

The Bucks won the original triple-overtime affair in November, 122-118, in what was Jason Kidd's first game back in Brooklyn as Milwaukee's head coach.

Brook Lopez had 32 points and 18 rebounds of his own for the Nets, who kept their playoff hopes alive. Coupled with Boston's loss to San Antonio, the Nets are now 2.5 games back of the promised land - eighth in the Eastern Conference.

The Bucks' starters were formidable: Ersan Ilyasova had 20 points, Giannis Antetokounmpo 23, Michael Carter-Williams 19, and Khris Middleton 29. The bench struggled, though, and the Bucks ended up shooting 38 percent from the floor.

Joe Johnson added 20 points for the Nets, while Thaddeus Young added 24 in a team-high 53 minutes. 

Moses Malone owns the record for most offensive rebounds in a game. He pulled down 21 on Feb. 11, 1982.
