The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 118–113 on October 26 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, with Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley combining for 47 points to secure the home victory. Despite Giannis Antetokounmpo's dominant 40-point performance and the Bucks' superior field-goal percentage (.506 vs. .448), Milwaukee's second-quarter collapse proved decisive—they managed just 25 points in the period while Cleveland outscored them 36–25 to build crucial separation. The Cavaliers' defensive intensity showed in their 10 steals and held the Bucks to 113 points despite Milwaukee's 25 assists and 13 three-pointers made. Cleveland's fourth quarter (32 points) sealed the outcome as Milwaukee's late surge fell short. Both teams committed turnovers in the mid-teens, though the Cavaliers' balanced attack—12 three-pointers and 23 assists—proved more sustainable than Milwaukee's reliance on Antetokounmpo and Alec Green (20 points). The loss marks an early-season stumble for the Bucks despite their offensive efficiency.
