Milwaukee's offensive efficiency proved decisive, shooting 58.2 percent from the field and making 13 three-pointers to control the tempo throughout. Boston's Jaylen Brown scored 30 points and J. Walsh contributed 20, but the Celtics' 38.6 percent shooting and anemic third quarter—just 13 points—sealed their fate. The Bucks' defense clamped down in the middle periods, holding Boston to 102 offensive rating while generating 121.9 on the other end. Milwaukee's 28 assists and balanced scoring depth overwhelmed a Celtics team that managed only 18 assists and committed 13 turnovers.
