Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: April 3 vs Boston Celtics
By Adam McGee
The Milwaukee Bucks return home after a week long road trip to host the Kyrie Irving-less Boston Celtics on Tuesday night.
After a full week on the road for their final West coast trip of the season, the Milwaukee Bucks will be glad to return home for their game on Tuesday night.
As time winds down on life at the Bradley Center, the Boston Celtics will visit on Tuesday as the third last visitors to the building in the regular season.
The Celtics have had an outstanding season, yet it’s one that has only been further bolstered by their performances through the recent absences of key players.

While Kyrie Irving is sidelined following knee surgery, the Celtics have also had to deal with injuries to Al Horford, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart of late.
It’s a testament to Brad Stevens and the ethos and identity of his team, as they haven’t missed a beat during that spell. Since Irving’s last appearance, the Celtics are 7-2, which is a record only the 76ers, Rockets and Cavaliers have bettered during that span.
In other words, although this game may seem easier on paper than it could have been, the Bucks will have no room to underestimate this Celtics team.
With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the action ahead, and see which team can prevail on Tuesday night.
