Giannis, Damian Lillard Excite NBA Fans as Bucks Rally Past Tyler Herro, Heat
The Milwaukee Bucks rallied for a gritty 120-113 win over the Miami Heat on Sunday, marking their third consecutive win since returning from the All-Star break.
Damian Lillard led the way for Milwaukee on Sunday, posting 28 points and eight assists in the win. He also hit the dagger late in the fourth quarter, making a layup to give the Bucks a seven-point cushion with just over 20 seconds to play.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is still seemingly shaking off the rust after missing several weeks due to injury, but he came through for his team and finished with 23 points, 16 rebounds and seven assists.
The Heat, still finding their identity in the post-Jimmy Butler era, got a noble performance from Tyler Herro, who had 40 points, 11 assists and seven rebounds, but that wasn't enough to lead Miami to victory.
After the game, fans praised the Bucks for pulling out a tough win.
The Bucks have been shaky at times this year, but are still in playoff position as they sit in fifth place in the Eastern Conference at 31-24. They'll need more wins like Sunday's to ensure they hold their position.
