The Bucks meanwhile had pretty bad news as the talismanic forward Giannis Antetokounmpo suffered from a terrible knee injury. Going up for a rebound, Antetokounmpo landed awkwardly on his left leg.
With all the pressure on his left knee, the injury seemed pretty bad. The Bucks certainly will hope that Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday step up for the upcoming game and take a pivotal lead in the series.
