    Milwaukee opened its initial season on October 16, 1968, with an 89-84 loss to the Chicago Bulls before 8,467 fans in the Milwaukee Arena. The starting lineup featured Wayne Embry at center, Fred Hetzel and Len Chappell at forward, and Jon McGlocklin and Guy Rodgers in the backcourt. Larry Costello was the head coach. The team's first win came in its sixth game of the season, a 134-118 victory over the Detroit Pistons.

    I'm actually giving it to jeffcbay as the first two answers had errors. Julen23 did not put the date of the win over Detroit which was part of the question and Goot put the wrong score down for the Detroit game. You are missing the 1 in 134.
    Thanks for playing
