Milwaukee Bucks: 3 things to watch for in Monday visit to Miami Heat
By Adam McGee
On the second game of a back-to-back, the Milwaukee Bucks will visit the Miami Heat and hope to avenge an early season defeat.
With 60 games down on their 2019-20 season, the Milwaukee Bucks couldn’t have asked for much more from their campaign so far.
A hardfought win over the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday afternoon gave the Bucks their 52nd win of the season so far, and set them up well for just their second game of the season against the Miami Heat.

The Bucks will make their first visit of the year to South Florida on Monday, as on the second night of a back-to-back they’ll square up against the team that currently sits in fourth place in the Eastern Conference standings.
With potential for future meetings in the postseason, and with the Bucks having lost in their previous clash with Miami this year, Milwaukee should have no shortage of motivation when it comes to pushing through any tiredness.
Of course, it would be a major boost if Khris Middleton was to return to the lineup, having missed the Bucks’ last two outings due to the neck soreness.
With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at three key elements worth watching out for as the Bucks visit the Heat.
