2022 NBA Playoffs: Results, Live Updates as the Bulls and Defending Champions Bucks clash in first-round series

The Milwaukee Bucks begin their official title defense on Sunday in Game 1 against the Chicago Bulls in the first round of the NBA playoffs. Janice Adetokunmpo and Bucks have dominated the Bulls in recent years, scoring 16-1 in their last 17 games, including 4-0 this season. Chicago, making its first playoff appearance since 2017, seems to be reversing that trend. After falling behind in double digits in the first quarter, the Bulls struggled hard to turn it into a one-man game in the fourth quarter.

The end of the action from Day 2 will be the most staged Phoenix Suns host of No. 8 New Orleans Pelicans. Earlier, the Miami Heat did an easy job for the Atlanta Hawks, 115-91, to lead 1-0 in the series. In addition, the Celtics defeated the Nets, thanks to the incredible shooting of Jason Tatum.
