Giannis Antetokounmpo: Bucks stars reveal how they will celebrate after Pistons series win

The Bucks secured their first playoff series win in 18 seasons after completing a four-game sweep against the Pistons.

And Bucks guard Eric Bledsoe revealed the team are going to celebrate on the plane on the way back to Milwaukee.

Bledsoe admitted he is planning to enjoy the victory by playing the card game bourre with team-mates, while also hoping to take some of Antetokounmpo’s money in a poker game.

“We are going to celebrate on the plane on the way back,” Bledsoe said.

“We are going to have some fun play a little bit of bourre.

“Hopefully I might get into the poker game and take some of Giannis’ money.”

Antetokounmpo led the Bucks’ scoring as he finished the night with 41 points, nine rebounds and three assists.

The Bucks have previously lost in the first round of the playoffs in their last eight appearances and Antetokounmpo feels the team has come a long way.

“It means a lot,” he said.

“I’ve been six years in the league and just to win and just to win the first playoff series with this group right here, it’s unbelievable.

“I think we played great basket ball.

“We stuck together the whole series.

“I remember our first playoff series and we lost to Chicago and in the last game, Game 6, they beat us by 50, something insane.

“But where we were, and where we are now, has been an unbelievable journey.

“I think the organisation has done a great job pushing us in that direction.”

The Bucks, who are the top-seeded team in the Eastern Conference, will now play No 4 seed Boston in the semifinals, after they beat the Indiana Pacers in their first-round series.
