The Milwaukee Bucks will look to extend their season for at least one more game as they prepare for Game 5 against the Miami Heat.
It was a close run thing, and it took a lot of heart, but the Milwaukee Bucks pulled out an overtime win without their best player on Sunday to save their season, at least temporarily.
If there’s to be any further reprieve, or any spark to allow the Bucks’ players and fans to really start to dream of a historic comeback, they’ll need to find a repeat of that same energy and bring it into Tuesday’s Game 5 with the Miami Heat.

The Bucks may well again be without their star player and talisman, Giannis Antetokounmpo, but they don’t have the luxury of feeling sorry for themselves.

With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at three things worth watching out for as the Bucks look to survive for another day through their Game 5 with the Heat.
