NBA Playoffs 2017: Raptors vs. Bucks Game 3 live stream: Watch online

The Milwaukee Bucks (1-1) host the Toronto Raptors (1-1) for the third game of their No. 3 vs. No. 6 matchup on Thursday night. Here is how to watch Game 3 of this opening-round series online.

After a clenched-fist Toronto win tied things up at 1-1, the series moves to Milwaukee for a pivotal Game 3.

The Raptors were able to hold onto victory in Game 2 by opting for a smaller lineup, scorching the nets from deep (48.3 percent from 3), and changing their defensive philosophy. Mainly, they did everything they could to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo from getting forward momentum towards the basket.

Giannis still came away with a sterling 24-point, 15-rebound, 7-assist line, but he struggled for most of the game. One of the keys to the Raptors’ success in containing the Greek Freak was making P.J. Tucker his primary defender. It will be up to Jason Kidd to draw up a game plan to jostle his young star loose into transition where he’s at his most dangerous.

Although the minute combinations will probably fluctuate, both teams are likely to stick with the same starting lineups they sent out in the first two games. The Raptors starters are Kyle Lowry, DeMar Derozan, DeMarre Carroll, Serge Ibaka, and Jonas Valanciunas. The Bucks are expected to continue with Malcolm Brogdon, Tony Snell, Khris Middleton, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Thon Maker.
