Milwaukee Bucks Vs Boston Celtics NBA Playoffs Coverage Game Commentary & Reaction May 3, 2022
The Milwaukee Bucks went into Boston on Sunday and handed the Celtics a stunning 101-89 defeat in Game 1 of their second-round series. In the process, the defending champions stole home court away from the East's No. 2 seed. Boston will try and rebound with a win at TD Garden Tuesday night, but will be doing it without Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Smart, who's ruled out with a right thigh contusion.
Giannis Antetokounmpo posted a triple-double (24 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists) while Jrue Holiday led the Bucks in scoring with 25 points. Milwaukee's defense made life extremely difficult for the Celtics, who shot 33 percent from the field -- their worst field-goal percentage in any game this season. Jayson Tatum finished with a team-high 21 points in Boston's loss. Despite the absence of Khris Middleton, the Bucks improved to 4-0 without their star forward. Here's how to watch Game 2.
