Players to watch out for in Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks

Giannis Antetokounmpo – Bucks

Giannis had a monster game in Game 1, and he will look to build on that performance and help his team to win the second game of the series as well and have a commanding lead over the Celtics.

Jayson Tatum – Celtics

Tatum needs to step up and lead his team from the front, as this is a very crucial game for them, and if they fail to win this one, things might get ugly.
