In a thrilling back-and-forth finish, the Milwaukee Bucks were able to overcome the Orlando Magic and advance to the NBA Cup semifinals, 114-109.
Turnovers really troubled Milwaukee in the opening stanza, allowing Orlando to quickly crack open a seven point advantage. However, Giannis Antetokounmpo would eventually rev his engines up, connecting on both field goals from the floor and from the stripe. He’d tally 11 in the first quarter, paving the path towards a 33-25 Bucks lead after one.
After featuring a 23 point performance in Brooklyn the other day, Bobby Portis once again provided a boost off the bench.
