The Milwaukee Bucks are officially back in the playoffs. They’d do so by reeling in another victory against the Brooklyn Nets, 124-118.
The back-and-forth action would pick right back up where it left off on Sunday, with both teams clashing it out in the opening quarter. Paced by 14 points by Jrue Holiday, the Bucks commandeered a single-point advantage after the opening quarter, 34-33.
After Holiday and Middleton came out strong, Khris Middleton started making his presence felt in the second quarter. Foul trouble would cause Giannis to spend much of the quarter riding the bench, but it wouldn’t impact the Bucks’ lead.
