Bucks Rest Starters, Settle For 3rd Seed

CHICAGO, IL – (Wisconsin Radio Network) – When it became apparent the Brooklyn Nets were going to beat Cleveland, Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer decided to give his starters some rest after a long season.  They all sat out the last game.  Rookie Jordan Nwora set career highs with 34 points and 14 rebounds for Milwaukee, but the Chicago Bulls still won 118-112 Sunday.  The Bucks meet Miami in the first round of the N-B-A playoffs.  The six-point win ended the Bulls’ 12-game losing streak against Milwaukee. Khris Middleton was the first Bucks starter to be ruled out due to a sore ankle.  He’s expected to be ready to go when the playoffs start Saturday.
