The Milwaukee Bucks have been struggling to keep things afloat as they only won twice in their last seven games. Their record falls down to 27-18 and they are now overtaken by the Miami Heat who is now third place in the NBA Eastern Conference standings. After securing a blowout victory over the Golden State Warriors, this team was not able to bring the momentum when they were visited by the Toronto Raptors and lost by seven points, 96-103. Giannis Antetokounmpo struggled shooting 6-of-17 from the field but managed to make it up going perfect from the free-throw line and finishing with 30 points against the Raptors.
