Here are 10 takeaways from the Toronto Raptors’ 110-96 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
One — Statement: The Raptors beat the Bucks from start to finish for the entire national audience to see. It wasn’t even close after the first quarter. Milwaukee struggled to generate offense and couldn’t even crack 100 points, with Giannis Antetokounmpo fouling out and Khris Middleton held to 13 points with six turnovers. It wasn’t just a repeat of the Raptors’ first win over the Bucks, because it was even more lopsided. The last time the Raptors exposed the Bucks this badly on a TNT broadcast was Games 3 to 6 in the 2019 Eastern Conference Finals.
