ORLANDO, FLORIDA - Giannis Antetokounmpo says the biggest challenge in the championship quest for the Milwaukee Bucks, who clinched a top seed in the National Basketball Association play-offs on Thursday , isn't a rival, but the Bucks themselves.

The Bucks, who won their only NBA title in 1971, could face Miami in the second round of the playoffs with Toronto, Boston, Indiana and Philadelphia threats as well. But Milwaukee's star forward sees the Bucks' main worry as playing to their potential.

The Heat played without Jimmy Butler because of a foot injury and Goran Dragic due to an ankle injury, but Miami sank 13 3-pointers in the first half, the last by Bam Adebayo at the buzzer to give the Heat a 73-56 lead over the NBA's top-rated defensive squad.
