MILWAUKEE (AP) Greg Monroe's layup put Milwaukee ahead with seconds left and John Henson swatted away Meyers Leonard's potential game-winning shot to help the Bucks edge the Portland Trail Blazers 90-88 on Monday night.
O.J. Mayo hit a 3-pointer that cut Portland's lead to 88-87 with 16.3 seconds left. After a Trail Blazers timeout, Michael Carter-Williams tied up CJ McCollum on the inbounds play as both fell to the floor in a scramble.
Carter-Williams won the jump ball and the Bucks worked it down low to Monroe. He muscled his way in for a layup and the Bucks' first lead since early in the fourth quarter.
