Bam Adebayo catches fire and Tyler Herro hits clutch shots, but Heat fall to Bucks in OT

The 2020 NBA playoffs continue to be heart-stopping.

The latest example came Sunday when the Miami Heat looked to finish off their series with the Milwaukee Bucks.

It looked like Miami, up 3-0 in the series, might cruise to victory after Giannis Antetokounmpo left in the second quarter with a sprained ankle, but the Bucks stood tall and kept the game close the whole way.

And in what’s become a common theme in these players, former Kentucky Wildcats made a major impact.

Bam Adebayo put on a show with a playoff career-high 26 points on 10/13 shooting to go with 12 boards and eight assists.

Tyler Herro made one of the biggest shots in the game with a minute left, as he hit a triple that briefly put Miami up 107-106.

After Donte DiVincenzo was fouled and made a free throw with 1.9 seconds left to tie the game, Miami’s Goran Dragic missed a buzzer-beater as the game went into overtime.

From there, the Bucks would take a 113-109 lead into the final minute, but another clutch three by Herro cut the deficit to one.

Then, Bucks star Khris Middleton hit a three with 6.3 seconds to put the lead back to four, but Herro hit yet another triple to cut it back to one with 3.0 seconds left.

After Middleton hit a pair of free throws, a desperation full-court pass was stolen by the Bucks, who went on to win the game 118-115.

Herro finished the game with 11 points on 4/11 shooting with four rebounds and four assists.

For Milwaukee, former Wildcat Eric Bledsoe finished with 14 points on 6/13 shooting with 10 boards and six assists.

The series is now 3-1 in favor of Miami with Game 5 set to tip off Tuesday at 6:30 pm EST on TNT.
