The Bucks may have lost out on the homecourt advantage they would have held for a postseason taking place under normal circumstances, but they can at least go into the restart knowing that they are equipped with one of the very best rosters and coaching staffs of any team in the Walt Disney World bubble.
Making Friday’s game even more interesting is the fact that they’ll come up against one of the few teams who can realistically share a similar confidence for the months ahead.
The Celtics will undoubtedly be one of the biggest challengers to the Bucks in the East, but could also be ranked among the top handful of teams from around the league who could end up hoisting the Larry O’Brien trophy aloft to finish the campaign as well.
With that, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Co. can finally get back to doing what they do best. So without further ado, let’s take a closer look at three things worth watching out for in the Bucks’ clash with the Celtics.
