The Milwaukee Bucks triumphed over the Orlando Magic 114-109 in the NBA Cup quarterfinals, powered by the stellar performances of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. Despite a valiant effort from the shorthanded Magic, who were without key players Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, the Bucks' late-game execution secured their spot in the semifinals.

Orlando's Jalen Suggs shone with 32 points, but Lillard's clutch scoring, including nine points in the final minute, sealed the victory for Milwaukee. The Bucks will face either the New York Knicks or Atlanta Hawks next.
