Bucks 2024 Playoff Schedule: Every playoff game (updated)
By Scott Rogust
What a year it has been for the Milwaukee Bucks. They entered the year on a high note after acquiring star Damian Lillard from the Portland Trailblazers to pair alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo. But then, drama entered the fold, with new head coach Adrian Griffin being fired midway through the season, despite leading the team to a 30-13 record. Doc Rivers stepped in, but it has been a mixed bag of results, going 17-19 since Griffin's firing.
The Bucks tumbled down the Eastern Conference standings and as if things couldn't get any worse, Antetokounmpo suffered a calf strain that will sideline him for the start of the opening round of the playoffs.
With the regular season done, the Bucks now carry the No. 3 seed in the East. Their opponents are the No. 6 Indiana Pacers, who won't be an easy out of the playoffs. That task got much more difficult with Antetokounmpo out at the start of the round.
Without further ado, let's take a look at the Bucks' playoff schedule.
