Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 23 for Milwaukee and added 7 rebounds and 6 assists.
Damian Lillard added 20 on 5-of-10 from three, but Bobby Portis (20) was the only one other than the two stars to score in double figures for the Bucks, who made just 11 of 39 threes (28 percent) compared to 19 of 39 for the Warriors.
