Toronto’s short-handed Raptors beat the Milwaukee Bucks 121-107 in an NBA Cup group game in Milwaukee, with Alijah Martin scoring a career-high 27 points.
Multiple outlets highlight that Toronto also got a big scoring effort from RJ Barrett, who scored 27, and that the Raptors’ reserves and second-half surge helped turn the game in their favor. One report notes Jamal Shead’s career-high 16 assists, framing the win as a team effort beyond the headline scorers.
The coverage consistently places the result in the NBA Cup group stage context, with Toronto moving to 1-1 and Milwaukee dropping to 0-1. Several outlets also stress Toronto’s injury absences, including Kawhi Leonard (knee), Scottie Barnes (groin), and Immanuel Quickley (hamstring), underscoring that Toronto played without several top contributors while still producing a convincing win.
