ORLANDO - Tobias Harris had 26 points and 10 rebounds to help the Magic beat the Bucks 101-85 on Friday night.
Victor Oladipo returned to Orlando's lineup as the Magic earned its 17th consecutive home win against Milwaukee. Oladipo, who suffered a facial fracture right before the season started, scored 13 points in 25 minutes.
Playing against his former team, Harris gave Orlando an 84-68 lead on a reverse layup with 10:06 left.
Milwaukee pulled within seven on John Henson's hook shot with 6:15 remaining, but the Magic scored the next seven points to pull away.
Brandon Knight scored 14 of his 24 points in the first quarter for Milwaukee.
Game highlights: Ty Lawson had 11 points and 10 assists, and the Nuggets beat the Pacers 108-87 for their first road win of the season.
Sterling case: Former Clippers owner Donald Sterling wants to question commissioner Adam Silver and companion V. Stiviano in his federal antitrust lawsuit against the league.
A filing Thursday in Los Angeles federal court listed 18 witnesses Sterling may call, also including his wife, Shelly, and retired commissioner David Stern. The renewed push in the litigation seeking more than $1 billion in damages over the Clippers' sale came after the possibility of a settlement emerged last month.
Sterling attorney Bobby Samini and an NBA spokesman didn't respond to requests for comment by the Los Angeles Times.
The court filing calls Sterling's lifetime ban from the league and $2.5 million fine for recorded comments to Stiviano about blacks that become public in April as "egregiously excessive and utterly draconian." Sterling wants to do "broad discovery" into the circ*mstances of the recording he says was made illegally.
KG wants to buy T-wolves: Kevin Garnett, the Timberwolves' all-time leading scorer, said he wants to one day own the team. "Put a group together and perhaps some day try to buy the team. That's what I want," Garnett, now with the Nets, told Yahoo Sports.
Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor said this year he is interested in finding a minority partner who might ultimately buy his stake in the team.
A royal game: Britain's Prince William and his wife, Kate, will attend the Dec. 8 game between the Nets and Cavaliers at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, the British government said.
The couple will visit the United States from Dec. 7-9 and attend the game "to help launch a new collaboration between the Royal Foundation, United for Wildlife and the NBA," the government said in a release.
United for Wildlife is a partnership of seven conservation organizations created by William, Kate and William's brother, Harry, to address conservation issues.
Around the league: The Cavaliers' Kevin Love said it's not true he will exercise an early termination option in his contract this summer to sign with the Lakers. "I don't know where somebody got that," he said. ... The Bulls' Derrick Rose has a mild left hamstring strain and is day to day, coach Tom Thibodeau said. Rose was injured late in the fourth quarter Thursday against the Raptors. ... Amare Stoudemire missed a game for the first time this season when the Knicks rested the forward against the Jazz. The decision was partly because the Knicks have a short turnaround before an afternoon game against Denver on Sunday, coach Derek Fisher said. ... Dwyane Wade missed the Heat's game at Atlanta due to a strained left hamstring. Coach Erik Spoelstra said he wasn't sure how long Wade, who sat out nine games last season with a similar injury, would be sidelined. ... Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is missing the final two games of a West Coast road trip with what the team called a stress reaction in his right foot. The games were Friday against the Suns and today against the Warriors. ... Timberwolves forward Thaddeus Young will miss at least two games, including Friday's against the Pelicans, because of his mother's death. Lula Hall died Thursday, the team said. It didn't provide details.
