Keys to the game

Every Bucks player not named Giannis or Khris

The last time the Bucks and Celtics met, Giannis and Khris Middleton combined for 64 percent shooting but everyone else shot a combined 37 percent. Clearly, the rest of the Bucks will have to come to party in the rematch.

Containing Kemba

While the Celtics may well have problems locking down Giannis following the departure of Al Horford, the Bucks allowed Kemba Walker to drop 31/7/6 last time around and will need to better on Friday if they want to win.
