Bucks fi nish with a flourish, rally to top Raptors 108-100
By TIM REYNOLDS
AP Basketball Writer
MILWAUKEE — Down for
most of the game, clearly rusty at
times after nearly a full week off,
the Milwaukee Bucks looked very
much like a team in trouble.
Until the fourth quarter.
The team with the NBA’s best
record this season found its stride
at the perfect time.
Brook Lopez scored 13 of his
career playoff-high 29 points in the
fourth quarter, Giannis Antetok-
ounmpo added 24 points and the
Bucks closed the game on a 10-0
run to beat the Toronto Raptors
108-100 in Game 1 of the Eastern
Conference fi nals on Wednesday
night. Milwaukee forced Toronto
into missing its fi nal eight shots
and outscored the Raptors 32-17 in
the fourth.
“I think it speaks a little bit to
the character of the group,” Bucks
coach Mike Budenholzer said.
“They just stick with it. I think it’s
become a little bit of a theme in the
playoffs: I think eventually, hope-
fully, we feel like if we stick with
what we’re doing good things will
happen for us.”
Lopez had a dunk with 2:20 left
to put the Bucks ahead for good,
added a 3-pointer on the next Mil-
waukee possession to push the
lead to four and the Bucks — after
trailing for most of the game —
did just enough in the fi nal min-
utes to grab the series lead.
Malcolm Brogdon scored 15
and Nikola Mirotic had 13 for
Milwaukee.
“Total team effort,” Lopez said.
Kawhi Leonard scored 31
points and Kyle Lowry added 30
for the Raptors, who led by as
many as 13 early and took an 83-76
lead into the fi nal quarter. Lowry
Christman: Second gold?

an adjustment,” Christman
said. “And, Kaylee and I
just got through running
the 3,000 (at district), and
we had to turn around and
run another lap. That does
not help your time.”
What the future
holds
This weekend likely
will be the fi nal laps
Christman will run com-
petitively. She is headed
to the University of Mon-
tana, where she will study
pre-med.
Christman has a 4.0
GPA and will be co-vale-
dictorian of her class when
it graduates May 26.
“I’ve been approached a
few times about running,”
she said. “But if I am on a
team, it might be a distrac-
tion and it would be hard
to get in on research pro-
grams because I wouldn’t
have the time. I want to
graduate, go to med school
and be a neurologist. I will
miss competing. I have
run cross-county and track
and played basketball in
high school. It’s a part of
me.”
was 5 for 7 in the fourth — and his
teammates were 0 for 15 in that
deciding quarter.
“Fourth quarter killed us,
32-17,” Lowry said. “They out-
played us in that fourth quarter.
They got a little bit more aggres-
sive. They made some big shots,
made some big plays. It sucks
when you lose like that. But we
had our chance and we’ve got to
learn from it.”
Lopez added 11 rebounds for
the Bucks, who had three play-
ers post double-doubles. Ante-
tokounmpo had 14 rebounds and
Khris Middleton fi nished with 11
points and 10 rebounds for Mil-
waukee, which is now 9-1 in this
postseason.
The Bucks trailed for 37 of the
game’s 48 minutes.
Didn’t matter. They stayed just
close enough until they could fi n-
ish with a serious kick.
