MILWAUKEE – The Toronto Raptors capitalized on a Giannis Antetokounmpo-less Milwaukee Bucks team, securing a 111-105 victory on Thursday night. Brandon Ingram led the charge with 29 points, while Scottie Barnes contributed 24 points and 11 rebounds. This win marks the Raptors’ second consecutive road victory, rebounding after a recent four-game losing streak.
The Bucks, struggling with the absence of their two-time MVP (right calf strain) and Kyle Kuzma (illness), have now lost 12 of their last 15 games. Toronto was also missing key players RJ Barrett (knee sprain) and Jakob Poeltl (lower back).
Sandro Mamukelashvili chipped in with 18 points for Toronto, and the Raptors saw strong playmaking from Jamal Shead and Immanuel Quickley, who each dished out 10 assists.
Bobby Portis led the Bucks with 24 points and 12 rebounds, while Kevin Porter Jr. added 22 points and 13 assists. Myles Turner also contributed 21 points for Milwaukee.
The game saw momentum shifts, with the Bucks briefly taking a lead in the third quarter after trailing early. However, a quick response from Barnes and a late surge from Gradey Dick helped the Raptors regain control and hold off a late Milwaukee rally.
