The Nets and Bucks are squaring off in a Game 7 on Saturday night, with the winner advancing to the NBA’s Eastern Conference finals.
Brooklyn had a chance to eliminate Milwaukee on the road in Game 6, but Khris Middleton and Giannis Antetokounmpo combined for 68 points and the Bucks stayed alive with a 104-89 victory forcing a winner-take-all game at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center.
The Nets are going to be short-handed in Game 7, as they have been all series long. Kyrie Irving (ankle) will miss his third consecutive game, so Kevin Durant and James Harden will need to carry the load.
Durant has done most of the heavy lifting this series with Harden (hamstring) at less than 100 percent; the 7-0 forward has averaged 33.3 points per game during the first six.
