San Antonio defeated Milwaukee 127–95 on March 28 at Fiserv Forum, a dominant road victory that fell well short of the 227.5-point Vegas total. Victor Wembanyama led the Spurs with 23 points while Shai Gilgeous Alexander contributed 22 points in a balanced attack; San Antonio's 35 assists and 41 rebounds underscored their control of the tempo and glass. The visitors shot 55.1 percent from the field and matched Milwaukee's 14 three-pointers despite superior overall efficiency, while forcing 18 Bucks turnovers and recording 13 steals on defense. Milwaukee's G. Trent Jr. (18 points) and Myles Turner (15 points) could not spark the home offense, which managed just 43.7 percent shooting and 22 assists across four quarters. The Spurs' suffocating defense held a 96.3 defensive rating while generating a 127.3 offensive rating, most evident in the first quarter when San Antonio scored 37 points to Milwaukee's 24. The Bucks' third-quarter surge of 34 points proved too little, too late as the Spurs maintained their advantage throughout. San Antonio's road dominance strengthens their playoff positioning in the Western Conference.
