In a game in which they were without Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks blew out the Miami Heat, 124-102.
With a handful of players sidelined in this one, the Bucks would experiment with some interesting lineups in the first quarter. Every active player besides Jordan Nwora saw first quarter action. After an initial slow start, Milwaukee would come to life to take a 34-23 into the second quarter.
Jrue Holiday and Khris Middleton exhibited strong offensive outputs in the second quarter, creating much of the flow of Milwaukee’s offense. The Bucks would nearly earn a 20-point lead at points.
