The Orlando Magic faced off against one of the best defensive teams in the NBA this past Monday in the Milwaukee Bucks.
It should come as no surprise the team comprised of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jrue Holiday, Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton has the best unadjusted defensive rating in the NBA, and their league-best defense was on full display against the Magic: Orlando shot just 36.6% from the field and 25.0% from three in the contest.
Paolo Banchero also posted his least efficient shooting performance of the season (4/16 from the field), primarily because of Holiday’s defensive prowess.
