Celtics fall to Bucks as Giannis Antetokounmpo is injured in bizarre contest: 7 takeaways

The Celtics dropped a 104-91 loss to the Bucks on Tuesday in one of the stranger games of the season thus far.

Here are the takeaways.

1. If TNT was hoping to get a better game than the last time the Celtics and Bucks faced off (back in January when the Bucks trounced a visibly exhausted Celtics team 135-102), the network was presumably sorely disappointed by Tuesday’s result. The Celtics, of course, have the Eastern Conference locked up and didn’t bother playing Al Horford or Kristaps Porzingis. The Bucks were coming off a four-game losing streak and badly needed a win to hold off the Magic and Knicks, who both sit one game back in the Eastern Conference standings.
