Beijing time on April 21 news, Milwaukee Bucks officially announced that Middleton's left knee cruciate ligament sprain will be tested tomorrow.
"I was just told that Middleton had a sprained cruciate ligament in his knee and we will arrange for him to undergo an MRI tomorrow." Bucks head coach Budenholzer said in response to questions from reporters after the game.
Middleton, who was injured in the fourth quarter, slipped on an offensive and defensive break, walked a bit lame when he got up, stretched his left leg after Lopez performed his first free throw, then returned to the dressing room, after which he never returned to the court.
Middleton had 18 points, eight assists and five rebounds before leaving, including 13 points in the third quarter.
Middleton has always been an indispensable link in the Bucks' tactical system, and although the extent of his cruciate ligament injury is not yet known, at least the next two away games will not be played. At present, the big score of the series has reached a 1-1 draw, the Bucks have lost another big player, and the Bucks' road to defending the title is long and difficult!
