Game 5 is Tuesday at 8 p.m.
Milwaukee Bucks vs. Boston Celtics (Series tied 2-2)
The Celtics won both games in Boston, while the Bucks took both games in Milwaukee. With the Bucks securing a win in Game 4, the series found itself tied 2-2.
The Bucks needs a strong offensive performance from Giannis Antetokounmpo, while the Celtics need to try to overcome Milwaukee’s defense. Another high-scoring night for Jaylen Brown would be huge for Boston’s offense.
Antetokounmpo says trust is key for the Bucks.
Game 5 is Tuesday at 7 p.m.
San Antonio Spurs vs. Golden State Warriors (GSW leads 3-1)
The San Antonio Spurs have forced a Game 5 against the Warriors. Golden State had a 3-0 lead heading into Game 4. Steph Curry (knee) remains out for the Warriors, while Kawhi Leonard (quad) is out for the Spurs.
Kevin Durant said despite the Game 4 loss, the team is moving on and focusing on Game 5.
Game 5 is Tuesday at 10:30 p.m.
