Jimmy Butler catches fire as Miami Heat stun Milwaukee Bucks in series opener


Jimmy Butler hit three consecutive hoops down the stretch to cap a postseason career-high, 40-point performance on Monday night as the fifth-seeded Miami Heat stunned the top-seeded Milwaukee Bucks 115-104 in the opener of their Eastern Conference semi-final series in the NBA bubble.

Goran Dragic chipped in with 27 points and Bam Adebayo accumulated a double-double with 12 points and a game-high 17 rebounds as the Heat struck the first blow in the best-of-seven series. เช็คผลบอล

Giannis Antetokounmpo was held to 18 points in the loss, which was Milwaukee's second straight in an opening game. The Bucks dropped Game 1 to Orlando in the first round before rebounding with four consecutive decisive wins.

Milwaukee came out on fire against Miami, pouring in 40 first-quarter points en route to an 11-point advantage. Antetokounmpo had half of his 18 points in that run.

But the Heat clawed back, getting within 63-60 by half-time before taking an 82-80 lead late in the third quarter on a pair of Tyler Herro free throws.
