Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat delivered another major shock to the 2021 NBA champions on Monday night, upsetting the Milwaukee Bucks for the third time. This time, it was on the back of a legendary effort from Butler.
Despite Giannis Antetokounmpo's return to the lineup, the Bucks now find themselves in a 3-1 hole with the task at hand winning three consecutive games.
The Bucks are double-digit favorites in this contest, but we've seen that nothing can be taken as a given in this series or in this NBA Playoffs in general.
Read on to see how our Action Labs model projections are forecasting the evening for Antetokounmpo.
