The NBA defending champion Milwaukee Bucks will host the Chicago Bulls Wednesday night in game five of the first-round playoffs. The Bucks responded to a game two loss to the Bulls by beating the Bulls convincingly in games three and four in Chicago.
With Khris Middleton out with a knee injury, Grayson Allen has stepped up to score 49 points in the last two games while going 11/14 from the three-point arch.
The Bulls will look to prolong the series with DeMar DeRozan leading Chicago in scoring during the playoffs averaging 23.3 points while Giannis Antetokounmpo leads the Bucks with 27.5 points and 14.5 rebounds per contest.
Tipoff at Fiserv Forum is set for 6:30 pm. If the Bucks win Wednesday, they would play the Boston Celtics in the second round. Boston swept the Brooklyn Nets in four games earlier this week.
