Lopez to rescue as Bucks down Raptors in opener

Two free throws from Kawhi Leonard had nudged Toronto into a 100-98 lead as the clock wound down on a pulsating opening instalment of the best-of-seven series. “It was a complete team effort,” said Lopez, who finished with 11 rebounds and two assists. “We’d been playing with good energy the whole game but shots weren’t going down for us. So we knew we just had to keep grinding, which is what we’ve been doing all season long,” Lopez added.

Middleton had 11 points with 11 rebounds while Malcolm Brogdon delivered a vital 15 points from the bench. “And several times in the fourth quarter he was out there making big-time plays -- blocks, rebounds, contests. Certainly in a big moment, that was a great Brook Lopez tonight.”
