Bucks vs. Heat: How Milwaukee set a new playoff franchise record for 3-pointers in Game 2 destruction of Miami
CBSN
The Bucks went 22-for-53 from downtown in a historic shooting performance
MILWAUKEE -- After making just 5-of-31 3-pointers in Game 1 -- their fewest makes in a playoff game since 2017 -- the Milwaukee Bucks knew they would shoot the ball better in Game 2. But even with all the confidence of one of the best 3-point shooting teams in the league, they still couldn't have expected to come out and make history. That's just what happened, however, as the Bucks knocked down their first two attempts from downtown and never let up. They hit 10 3-pointers in the first quarter alone to tie the NBA playoff record for 3s in a quarter and finished 22-of-53 from beyond the arc to set a new record for the most made 3-pointers in a playoff game in franchise history. Unlike their last game, which went down to the wire, this one was over almost as soon as it started. Thanks to the historic 3-point attack, the Bucks coasted past the Miami Heat for a 132-98 victory and a 2-0 series lead. Ten different players made at least one triple, but the star of the show was Bryn Forbes, who drained six of them en route to a new playoff career-high 22 points.More Related News
