Game Recap

It was a mismatch early in terms of offensive effectiveness between the two teams, with Damian Lillard taking his time to get off the mark for Milwaukee while Boston had little trouble driving at the basket. Once Jayson Tatum subbed out, the Bucks stabilized thanks to a drop in Boston’s shooting and tendency to fall back towards bombing away from three.
