The top seeded Milwaukee Bucks’ hopes of winning their first NBA title since 1971 got off to a rocky start.

The Magic put in a collective effort to take game 1 of their series against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Nikola Vucevic scored his playoff career-high 35 points and had 14 rebounds, Terrence Ross scored 18 points, Gary Clark added 15 and D.J. Augustin had 11 points and 11 assists for the eighth-seeded Magic, who came in as 14-point underdogs.

Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 31 points, 17 rebounds and seven assists for Milwaukee. Last season’s MVP was held without a field goal over the final 11 minutes and seemed to be getting more frustrated as the fourth quarter went on.
