Yet again, it was the duo of Chris Paul and Devin Booker who broke the Bucks. The veteran star went on to score 23 crucial points by the end. Alongside him, Devin Booker scored 31-points while Deandre Ayton and Jae Crowder recorded double-double each. For the Milwaukee Bucks, things tumbled. Despite Giannis Antetokounmpo’s huge 41-point performance, they were farfetched. Other than him, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday could barely manage scoring in double figures.

Post-game, Shaq asked CP3 how it felt to be up 2-0 and what are they gonna do to not get overconfident.
