Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Corey Maggette notched a season-high 29 points to go with 11 rebounds as Milwaukee outlasted Toronto, 116-110 in overtime, at Air Canada Centre.

Ersan Ilyasova posted 25 points and seven boards before fouling out late in regulation for the Bucks, who have won two in a row and four of six overall.

Andrew Bogut notched 24 points and Carlos Delfino came off the bench to add 15 points and six assists for Milwaukee, which has taken five of the last seven meetings with Toronto.

Amir Johnson tallied 24 points and a game-best 12 rebounds for the Raptors, who suffered their 10th straight defeat. Andrea Bargnani scored 23, while Jose Calderon fought off flu-like symptoms to contribute 13 points and 10 assists in a losing effort.

Bogut hit three straight shots to begin overtime and the Bucks led 110-104, but Johnson hit a bucket and DeMar DeRozan answered twice for the Raptors to tie the game with 1:04 remaining.

Maggette responded almost immediately, draining a long three with 44.8 to play, and off a missed Sonny Weems three, Delfino hit 1-of-2 at the line to make it 114-110 with 29.3 to go. Johnson missed a layup and Maggette added two more free throws to salt away the victory.
