Kevin Porter Jr.'s contribution offensively cannot be overlooked as he scored a team-high of 21 points along with five assists and five steals. His defensive efforts were just as crucial in turning over possession and initiating fast breaks that proved decisive in building momentum for Milwaukee.


On Minnesota's side, despite leading for most of the game with a notable biggest lead of twenty-four points during playtime, they struggled to maintain their advantage towards closing stages. Their performance from beyond-the-arc at thirty-two percent alongside forty-six percent field goal shooting kept them competitive throughout but wasn't enough to secure victory against a determined Bucks squad.
