The loss broke Milwaukee's 14-game win streak against the Magic and marked the Bucks' first loss in Orlando since March 14, 2018.
The Bucks fell behind 65-49 after a first half in which they had nine turnovers and missed nine free throws while sending the Magic at the line for 21 attempts. Orlando shot a season-high 35 foul shots in the game, making 30.

The Magic took that 16-point lead into the fourth quarter, but the Bucks made their first six shots in the period, including 3-pointers by Kris Middleton and Bobby Portis, and quickly reduced Orlando's margin to 11.
But they never got closer. Banchero answered with a long jumper and Jonathan Isaac hit a 3-pointer.
The often-injured Isaac finished the game and scored 10 points, with five rebounds and a block in 17 minutes.
Magic guard Markelle Fultz, who played 29 minutes in Thursday night's loss to Atlanta after missing three games with a swollen left knee, was a late scratch.
