Milwaukee Bucks

The Milwaukee Bucks will welcome the Miami Heat to the FedExForum for an NBA game on Sunday. The Milwaukee Bucks lost 121-105 in their last game over the Raptors. Bobby Portis Jr. scored 16 points, Jae Crowder added 13 and Meyers Leonard had 10 points and 12 rebounds for the Bucks, who clinched the NBA’s best record and the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference last Wednesday.

Lindell Wiggington scored 17 points, and Goran Dragic and Thanasis Antetokounmpo each had 14 for Milwaukee, which finished the regular season 58-24. Two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo was one of seven players out for the Bucks. He missed his third straight game and Khris Middleton missed his second straight, each because of a sore right knee. Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez sat due to rest, according to the Bucks’ injury report, while Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton were out because of right ankle injuries.

The Bucks don’t know which of four potential opponents, including Toronto, they’ll host in the first round of the playoffs, but coach Mike Budenholzer said the team will be doing more than scouting during their coming downtime. “I think we’ll probably focus on ourselves, too, to be honest with you,” Budenholzer said. “The appropriate amount of scouting and prep will be put in.” Crowder said he welcomed the opportunity to look inward rather than worry about another team.

Miami Heat

The Miami Heat on the other hand won 102-91 against the Bulls in their last game. Max Strus had another 3-pointer taken away in an elimination game. He and Jimmy Butler made sure it didn’t matter. The playoffs await. Strus and Butler — who was doubled over at times in the final moments, heaving for every breath — scored 31 points apiece, and the Miami Heat closed the game on a 15-1 run to beat the Chicago Bulls 102-91 in an Eastern Conference play-in game Friday night.

“Our team has obviously not been perfect this year,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “But I do know one thing about the men in that locker room: The last 48 hours, I know how categorically, unequivocally, how badly and desperately our group wanted to get into this damn thing — and get into the playoffs to have an opportunity to compete for a title.”
