TORONTO (Ticker) -- The Milwaukee Bucks were anxious for a road win. Their quest was helped by the Toronto Raptors' worst offensive output at home in franchise history.
Toni Kukoc scored 15 points off the bench and Michael Redd and Tim Thomas added 14 apiece as Milwaukee snapped its three-game losing streak with an 82-62 romp.
The Bucks were 0-2 on a three-game road trip and winless in their last three away from home. But they continued their strong play at the Air Canada Centre, recording their sixth straight win here while defeating the Raptors for the 10th time in the last 11 encounters.
"We've been very successful over the years at this facility and I guess we just get up for playing the raptors," Redd said. "We were very desperate for a win today. We lost our last three and we looked at today as a perfect opportunity to come in and try to steal one."
Vince Carter scored 15 points but was just 7-of-16 from the field and committed seven turnovers for Toronto, which has lost two in a row at home since starting a franchise-best 5-0 at the Air Canada Centre.
"We are not scoring at our best, but the other team isn't scoring 100 or 110 points either," said Carter, who was joined in double figures by Antonio Davis and rookie Chris Bosh, both of whom scored 13 points.
The Raptors' previous home low for points was 64 vs. Charlotte on November 20, 2000. They scored fewer than 70 for the fourth time this season after failing to reach the figure just four times in their history.
Toronto, which has scored 56 and 60 points in games this season, shot just 34 percent (25-of-73) from the field - the sixth time this season the team has shot less than 40 percent in a game.
"It was a combination of us not making shots and allowing them to get to the glass and they were able to finish," Bosh said. "We didn't show a sense of urgency. We know it's there on offense, but we just have to keep working on it."
The Bucks took control with an 11-0 run that began the second quarter. Kukoc's 3-pointer gave Milwaukee a 31-20 lead with 8:45 left in the half.
The Bucks never led by fewer than eight points thereafter and gained their first 20-point advantage on Kukoc's basket early in the fourth.
"My teammates gave me the ball early and I was able to get to the basket," Kukoc said. "We've struggled lately when we couldn't make shots, but today we hit the boards (45-39), which helped get some easy baskets.
"After losing three in a row, it's nice to get this one."
