The Bucks found themselves in a bad night in the early hours of the NBA, losing 117-103 to the Celtics in Boston, where Chris Middleton was injured.
The American power forward / small forward left the floor injured at the end of the third period and never returned, finishing the game with 4 points (2/7 two points, 0/1 three points), 8 rebounds, 3 assists, while he had 3 errors and 4 fouls in 23:49. The first estimates speak of sprain and overextension of the left knee.
Wishing the best for Khris Middleton. Stayed in the game for a few moments after hyperextending his knee, but ultimately took himself out. pic.twitter.com/SU8es6gMr0

The only ones saved for the champions were Giannis Antetokounbo (20 points with 7/11 two points, 0/3 three points, 6/8 shots, while he had 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 4 errors and 2 fouls in 33:35 ) and Jru Holliday (20 points with 6/13 two points, 2/3 three points, 2/3 shots and 8 assists).
Pat Conaton made a double-double (15 points, 9 rebounds) and Bobby Portis (13 points, 8 rebounds) contributed to the game of the Bucks.
In general, the “deer” had bad percentages from the periphery, without being able to compete equally with the hosts who showed that they had more motivation.
The one who shone from the Celtics was Jason Tatum, who scored 42 points, while he had 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals. On his side stood Brown (19 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists) and Williams (17 points, 7 rebounds).
Next match for the Bucks in the early hours of Thursday (03:00) in Milwaukee, where they will face the Indiana Pacers.
