Bucks cruise past depleted Sixers

LOS ANGELES — Damian Lillard scored 30 points and Giannis Antetokounmpo added 25 as the Milwaukee Bucks rolled to a 124-109 victory over the injury-depleted Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila) in the NBA season-opener for both teams.

The Sixers, without Joel Embiid and off-season acquisition Paul George, couldn't keep pace with the Bucks, who had 16 points from Taurean Prince and 16 off the bench from Bobby Portis.
