Chris Douglas-Roberts came off the bench to lead Milwaukee in scoring for the second consecutive night, and the Bucks snapped a three-game losing streak with a 115-92 victory over the host New Jersey Nets on Saturday.

A night after scoring a season-high 30 points in an overtime loss to Miami, Douglas-Roberts put up 24 points on 9-of-14 shooting to lead five players in double figures. Ersan Ilyasova added 22 points and 13 rebounds for the Bucks (14-21), who shot 58 percent from the field.

Both teams were without their starting point guards, as Milwaukee's Brandon Jennings missed his 10th consecutive game with a foot injury and New Jersey's Devin Harris sat out with a quadriceps injury suffered in Friday's loss to Washington.

The Bucks also were without center Andrew Bogut, who sat out because of a viral infection. Corey Maggette started in Bogut's place and scored 20 points to go with six rebounds.

Rookie Derrick Favors made his third consecutive start for the Nets, scoring 12 points and grabbing six rebounds in 27 minutes.

Kris Humphries scored 22 points of the bench and Jordan Farmar added 20 points and 10 assists for the Nets (10-27), who have lost seven of their last eight.
