Milwaukee Bucks at risk of elimination from NBA playoffs tonight | Latest updates on News, Sports, Jobs

The Milwaukee Bucks and Philadelphia 76ers are both facing the possibility of early playoff exits as they head into Game 5s in the Eastern Conference tonight. The Bucks are down 3-1 against the Indiana Pacers, while the 76ers are on the brink of elimination against the New York Knicks.

Despite having former MVPs Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard on their roster, the Bucks have struggled in the absence of both players due to injuries. The Pacers have taken advantage of their weakened lineup to take a commanding lead in the series.

On the other hand, the 76ers, led by Joel Embiid, have also faced challenges this postseason. Embiid, who missed time due to injury earlier in the season, has been unable to carry the team to victory against the Knicks.

In the only series tied 2-2, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic will face off in Game 5. Both teams have shown strong defensive performances, with the Magic surprising many with their offensive prowess in Games 3 and 4.

As the playoffs continue, the pressure is on for these teams to step up and secure their spots in the next round. With the possibility of early exits looming, the Bucks, 76ers, Cavaliers, and Magic will need to bring their A-game to stay alive in the postseason.
