After Action Report

The Bucks snuck past the Cavaliers 96-95. Ugly basketball, but the Bucks did just enough. The Bucks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Bucks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bucks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
