Another day, another playoff thriller in the books. Just when it looked like Gary Trent Jr. was going to force Game 6 back in Milwaukee, the Bucks had a costly turnover, and Tyrese Haliburton took advantage with the go-ahead layup to give the Pacers the lead and the series for good.
Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 30 points, 20 rebounds, and 13 assists, and his future in Milwaukee will definitely be the talk of the NBA for the next couple months.
Check out the immediate reactions:
Bucks suffer two costly turnovers in OT, Haliburton makes game-winning layup to finish off the series: 4-1.
Pacers complete comeback, win 119-118. Haliburton scored 21 of 26pts in 2H.
Up next: at Cleveland for Round 2

This loss will hurt for a while, but Gary Trent Jr. was unbelievable tonight.
I’ll always have respect for this man after taking a massive pay cut, signing to a minimum deal, and playing his heart out for this franchise. Hope Trent Jr. stays in Milwaukee. pic.twitter.com/XRFqGZdzER
