The Bulls snatched Game 2 in Milwaukee to take homecourt advantage away from the No. 3 seed Bucks and tied the series 1-1 heading back to the confines of the United Center.
Of more pressing concern for the defending champion is the health of All-Star Khris Middleton. Middleton underwent an MRI on Thursday and the results showed an MCL sprain in his left knee.
Middleton has been ruled out of the remainder of this series and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, but the Bucks must first survive this series.
The Bulls are riding high following their Game 2 win behind DeMar DeRozan's 41 points and will be looking to make a statement in front of their home crowd.
