Orlando Magic vs Milwaukee Bucks Player Stats and Box Score (Jan. 15) | 2024-25 NBA season

The Milwaukee Bucks rode a dominating first quarter on Wednesday to cruise to a comfortable win against the Orlando Magic. Giannis Antetokounmpo and Co. won the opening 12 minutes 34-16 and never looked back. The Bucks defense stifled the injury-plagued visitors, who relied solely on Paolo Banchero to carry them.

Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard combined for 56 points, 16 rebounds and eight assists. Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis came off the bench to contribute 14 points apiece.

Banchero finished the game with 22 points, but shot 8-for-20, including 2-for-7 from deep. Orlando's 12-for-46 shooting behind the arc was a huge reason for their offensive woes.

Damian Lillard led the Bucks in the opening period with 11 points and two assists. Giannis Antetokounmpo added seven points and three assists in the hosts’ dominant start.

The Magic played much better in the second quarter but lost the period 28-25. Banchero, Cole Anthony and Wendell Carter Jr. made the visitors more competitive. Still, Orlando trailed 62-41 at halftime.

The Magic continued to make the game a seesaw battle in the third quarter but still allowed the Bucks to win 30-27. Paolo Banchero desperately tried to keep his team within striking distance but received little help from his supporting cast. Orlando couldn’t slow down the Bucks’ balanced attack behind Damian Lillard. The Magic faced a 92-68 deficit entering the fourth quarter.

The Bucks comfortably marched to the finish line in the final 12 minutes. Milwaukee’s defense kept the Magic from mounting rallies. Magic coach Jamahl Mosley raised the white flag with roughly four minutes left in the game.
