Boston @ Milwaukee

Current Records: Boston 1-1; Milwaukee 1-1

What to Know

The Boston Celtics and the Milwaukee Bucks are even-steven against one another since November of 2015 (19-19), but not for long. After a few days’ rest for both teams, they will meet up at 3:30 p.m. ET May 7 at Fiserv Forum. The Celtics should still be riding high after a big victory, while Milwaukee will be looking to get back in the win column.

Boston is hoping for another win. They took their game against the Bucks on Tuesday by a conclusive 109-86 score. With Boston ahead 65-40 at the half, the matchup was all but over already. Their shooting guard Jaylen Brown looked sharp as he shot 6-for-10 from downtown and finished with 30 points, six dimes and five boards.

Boston is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Detroit Pistons Feb. 16 easily too and instead slipped up with a 112-111. In other words, don’t count Milwaukee out just yet.
