Milwaukee Bucks Dominate Miami Heat in a Stunning Victory

The Milwaukee Bucks secured a dominant 125-96 victory over the Miami Heat on Thursday, January 23, 2025, at Fiserv Forum. The win extended the Bucks’ winning streak to five games, while the Heat struggled without suspended star Jimmy Butler.

Milwaukee’s Damian Lillard led the charge with a near-triple-double, posting 29 points, 9 rebounds, and 11 assists. Giannis Antetokounmpo added 25 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 assists, while Gary Trent Jr. came off the bench to score 21 points, all from beyond the arc, including a season-high seven three-pointers. The Bucks’ offense was firing on all cylinders, with the team shooting 46.9% from the field and 45% from three-point range.

Miami, missing Butler for the second time this season due to disciplinary issues, was led by Kel’el Ware, who scored 22 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. Tyler Herro contributed 21 points and 9 assists, but the Heat struggled to keep pace with Milwaukee’s offensive onslaught. Miami shot just 37% from the field and 23.5% from three-point range, highlighting their struggles without their leading scorer.

The game started with Miami taking an early 18-3 lead, but the Bucks quickly responded with a 24-7 run to close the first quarter trailing by just three points. Milwaukee took control in the second quarter, outscoring the Heat 38-22, and never looked back. The Bucks’ defense clamped down in the third quarter, holding Miami to just 19 points on 30% shooting.

The victory improved Milwaukee’s record to 25-17, solidifying their position as the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference. Meanwhile, the Heat fell to 21-22, dropping to ninth in the East. The Bucks will look to continue their winning streak when they face the LA Clippers on Saturday, while the Heat will aim to bounce back against the Brooklyn Nets.
