The Magic, despite being shorthanded, put up a good fight. They were missing their top two players, Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, but still managed to keep it close. Jalen Suggs had a standout fourth quarter, scoring 18 points and even giving Orlando a brief lead.
But Lillard wasn’t having any of it. He scored nine points in the last minute, sealing the deal for the Bucks. They had a rough start but turned it around, showing their strength as a team.
Now, the Bucks are headed to the semifinals in Las Vegas, where they’ll face either the Knicks or the Hawks. The Magic, on the other hand, are out of the tournament, but they fought hard to get this far. It was a great game to watch!
