Lee was 10 of 12 from the field for the Warriors, who are enjoying their longest winning streak since their NBA-title season in 1975.
Stephen Curry added 15 points for the Warriors despite connecting on just 5 of 18 shots, while Klay Thompson also scored 15 points.
The Bucks, who hold the NBA's worst record, were within two at the half as the Warriors began to show the strain of playing their sixth game of a seven-city road trip, but Golden State broke open the game with a 23-7 run to start the third, highlighted by a step-back 3-pointer from the corner by Curry.
Ersan Ilyasova had 20 points and Brandon Knight 18 for the Bucks.
In Salt Lake City, Gordon Hayward scored a career-high 37 points, including Utah's final 17 points, to help the Jazz overcome Kevin Durant's 48 points and the Oklahoma City Thunder in a 112-101 victory.
After the Thunder slashed a 24-point Jazz lead to 99-94, Hayward made five straight jumpers - two of them 3-pointers - in his personal 17-7 run to clinch Utah's fourth straight home win.
Hayward went 13 for 16 from the field and had 11 rebounds and seven assists. Derrick Favors had 15 and Marvin Williams scored 12 as the Jazz stopped the Thunder's eight-game road winning streak.
