First Quarter


The game began on an even note, with both teams exchanging leads. The Bucks managed to edge ahead slightly, ending the first quarter with a narrow lead of 27-22. Myles Turner contributed significantly during this period, showcasing his defensive prowess by blocking two shots and grabbing four rebounds.


Second Quarter


However, the second quarter saw a dramatic shift in momentum as the Raptors launched an offensive blitz. Scoring an impressive 38 points in this period alone, they overturned their deficit into a commanding lead. The Herd struggled to contain Toronto's relentless attack and were outscored by 14 points in this crucial segment.


Third Quarter


Despite efforts from players like Kyle Kuzma and Ryan Rollins—who scored three points each—the third quarter did not see much improvement for Milwaukee. The North continued their dominance by adding another 32 points to their tally while limiting the Bucks' scoring opportunities effectively.


Fourth Quarter


In the final stretch of play, Milwaukee attempted to claw back but was unable to bridge the gap created earlier in the game. Kevin Porter Jr., despite being sidelined due to injury recovery plans for late November return, was missed on both ends of court action as his absence was felt deeply throughout this match-up against such formidable opponents like Jurassic Park’s squad who sealed victory comfortably after adding another solid performance worth noting here too!
