Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks’ MVP candidate, desperately wanted to provide a spark and cut into a second-half lead against Horford’s Boston Celtics in the opener of a second-round NBA playoff series on Sunday. Jaylen Brown of the Celtics dunks over Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo in the second half of Sunday’s Game 1 in Milwaukee. The Celtics clamped down on Antetokounmpo all game and cruised past the Bucks, 112-90. He didn’t make his first field goal until the first minute of the second quarter. The Celtics knocked Milwaukee out of the playoffs in seven games last year, winning the final game at home.
