The Philadelphia 76ers suffered a tough loss against the Milwaukee Bucks, falling 135-127, primarily due to their failure to defend the three-point line. The Bucks converted 24 of 55 attempts from beyond the arc, with All-Star Damian Lillard leading the way with 43 points, hitting 8 of 15 threes.

The 76ers, now 20-32 with three consecutive losses, had standout performances from Tyrese Maxey, who scored 39 points, and Joel Embiid, contributing 27 points and 12 rebounds. This marked only the 16th game this season for Embiid, who has struggled with knee issues. The Bucks extended their winning streak over the 76ers to seven games, even without superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.
