Led by Giannis Antetokounmpo’s 33 points, the Bucks eliminated Chicago from the postseason Wednesday night with a 116-100 win at home.
The Bucks claimed the Bulls series four games to one despite playing without N-B-A All-Star Khris Middleton for the last three games.
Chicago was playing without its starting backcourt of Zach LaVine and Alex Caruso.
Pat Connaughton nailed six-of-nine 3-pointers and Bobby Portis grabbed a career-high 17 rebounds.
