The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as the Bucks lost Game 5, in part thanks to cult hero Norman Powell.

In this latest edition of the Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we look back at a rough Game 5 for the Milwaukee Bucks, who lost an ugly game to the Toronto Raptors in The 6.

Despite how well the Bucks played last time they visited Toronto, the Raptors definitely played like the three-seed at home on Monday. Milwaukee never got enough offense going to take the lead back after Toronto snatched it.

As the series reaches do or die time for Milwaukee, stick with us at Behind the Buck Pass where we’ll round up all the key news every morning in this daily column.
