How did the second unit perform for the Milwaukee Bucks in win over Heat?

B+. Bobby Portis provided a spark offensively off the bench for the Bucks in this matchup by scoring 11 points on an efficient 5-of-7 shooting from the floor. His double-digit scoring night was highlighted by throwing down a thunderous poster dunk on Miami’s Tyler Herro. Also grabbing nine rebounds, Portis has a solid 17 minutes of action by nearly finishing with a double-double in the win.. PF. Milwaukee Bucks. BOBBY PORTIS

B+. Although he cooled down mightily compared to his heroic Game 2 performance, Bryn Forbes still made an impact during his 20 minutes of burn last night. The guard finished the win with 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting, including 3-of-7 from behind the arc. Providing another boost of offense alongside Portis off the bench. Forbes continues carving out a solid role for himself with his top-notch floor spacing and the team will encourage him to keep letting it fly.. SG. Milwaukee Bucks. BRYN FORBES

B. P.J. Tucker continues to have an impact on these games without logging much in the stat sheet. Despite finishing with just five points, three rebounds and a single assist, the forward was active all night while playing some hounding defense on Miami’s best offensive pieces. He has played his role perfectly since coming to the Bucks through trade and he topped it off last night by knocking down his signature corner triple.. PF. Milwaukee Bucks. P.J. TUCKER

After finding his shooting rhythm in Game 2, Pat Connaughton continued letting it fly with confidence by shooting 3-of-5 from 3-point range in last night’s matchup. Finishing with a line of nine points, three rebounds and an assist, Connaughton clocked in yet another solid effort off the bench. Although his minutes have been scattered throughout this series, the guard is someone that this team trusts on the floor and staying consistent with this recently sustained momentum could certainly keep him in the rotation..
