Spanish big man Serge Ibaka scored 19 points and DeMar DeRozan had 18 for the Raptors, who can advance to face defending champion Cleveland in the second round with a victory in Game 6 at Milwaukee on Thursday night.

Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with a career playoff-high 30 points and he also had 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks. Bosnian Mirza Teletovic added 3 points for the losing team, while Toronto’s Lithuanian Jonas Valanciunas had 8 points and 7 rebounds and also was called for double technicals with Greg Monroe after a minor shoving match under the Milwaukee basket in the third. After Valanciunas took exception to a hard foul from Khris Middleton, Monroe pushed his own teammate out of the way so he could shove Valanciunas.
