Four keys to the Milwaukee Bucks winning a second consecutive NBA championship

The Milwaukee Bucks were rallying in the fourth quarter of Game 2 of their first-round series against the Chicago Bulls when a driving lane opened up for forward Khris Middleton.

Middleton made a beeline toward the rim before Bulls center Nikola Vucevic stepped in front of the basket. Middleton attempted to spin away, but his left knee buckled as he fell to the court. Middleton tried to walk it off, but once he exited the game and headed toward the locker room, the team ruled him out for the night.

Middleton was diagnosed the next day with a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee.
