Alijah Martin and RJ Barrett scored 27 points apiece as the Toronto Raptors recovered from a 15-point deficit to defeat the Milwaukee Bucks 121–107 on Friday, November 6, at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.

Martin’s performance set a career high. The second-year guard made nine of his 11 field-goal attempts, including six of seven from three-point range. He had not previously scored more than nine points in an NBA game.

Toronto changed the game after halftime. Milwaukee led 60–51 at the break, but the Raptors scored 38 points in the third quarter and took an 89–87 advantage into the fourth. They then outscored the Bucks 32–20 in the final period.

The 70–47 second-half margin turned an early Milwaukee advantage into Toronto’s first victory in this season’s NBA Cup. The Raptors moved to 1–1 in East Group A, while the Bucks lost their first group game.

Jamal Shead finished with 10 points and a career-high 16 assists for Toronto. Jakob Poeltl and Collin Murray-Boyles each scored 19 points, giving the Raptors four players with at least 19.

Martin’s three-pointer midway through the third quarter gave Toronto its first lead. Milwaukee briefly regained control, but a subsequent nine-point Raptors run put the visitors ahead again. Toronto maintained that advantage through the fourth quarter.

Tyler Herro led Milwaukee with 23 points and 10 assists. Rookie Brayden Burries added 21 points and 11 rebounds, setting personal bests in both categories.

The result lifted Toronto’s overall record to 5–4. Milwaukee fell to 1–8.

The Raptors return home to face Memphis on Monday. Milwaukee hosts Boston on Sunday.
