NBA playoffs: Milwaukee Bucks secures its spot in the finals

The Milwaukee Bucks remarked a historic win 118-107. Bucks reached the finals for the first time since 1974 by beating Atlanta Hawks. Khris Middleton scored 32 points and Jrue Holiday added 27 to lead Milwaukee to victory despite the absence of injured star player Giannis Antetokounmpo. Middleton was crucial once again for the Bucks, scoring 16 straight points - and 23 in total - in the third quarter to give his team a 91-72 advantage heading into the fourth. He was told to be aggressive by his teammates and head coach. 

In the final, they will face the Western Conference champions, the Phoenix Suns. The first game of the best-of-seven series will begin at 0200 BST on Wednesday in Phoenix. It's unclear whether two-time NBA MVP Antetokounmpo will be able to play after recovering from a knee injury.
