The Milwaukee Bucks took care of business on the road against the Orlando Magic on Saturday night, picking up their 45th win of the season.
The Milwaukee Bucks completed their season series sweep over the Orlando Magic on Saturday night, further establishing their dominance against an opponent who they could very well see in the first round of the playoffs.
As has been the case in many of the Bucks’ recent meetings with the Magic, Orlando’s defense proved to be sturdy enough to mean it wasn’t always an easy ride, but then their offense was inept enough to mean an outcome outside of a Milwaukee win never really looked to be on the cards.
