PHILADELPHIA, April 9 (UPI) -- Brandon Jennings hit two free throws with 5 seconds remaining Friday, allowing Milwaukee to clinch a 95-90 victory over Philadelphia.
The Bucks began the evening tied for fifth place with Miami in the Eastern Conference.
Carlos Delfino helped Milwaukee take a 12-point halftime lead and finished with 25 points. Jennings had 16 for the Bucks, although he made only 4-of-17 shots from the field.
Philadelphia closed within five going into the fourth period and the 76ers were only three behind in the final minute.
Jrue Holiday missed a 3-pointer with 12 seconds left that would have tied it and although Samuel Dalembert grabbed the offensive rebound, he immediately threw a pass out of bounds.
Jennings was fouled on the inbounds play and his two free throws wrapped up Milwaukee's fourth straight victory.
Philadelphia was led by Andre Iguodala with 21.
