No Giannis Antetokounmpo, no problem.

After losing Game 1 on their homecourt, the Bucks cruised to a 138-122 victory over the Heat in Game 2 to tie the first-round series at 1-1. Brook Lopez stepped up in Antetokounmpo's absence, leading Milwaukee with a team-best 25 points. Jrue Holiday added 24 points while Pat Connaughton contributed 22 points off the bench.

With or without Antetokounmpo, the Bucks will now look to regain homecourt advantage as the series shifts to Miami.
