Keep an eye on the arc in Sunday’s match: The Bucks have been dynamite from deep this season, having drained 38.8% of their threes per game. It’s a different story for the 76ers, though, as they’ve only made 34% of their threes this season. Given the Bucks’ sizable advantage in that area, the 76ers will need to find a way to close that gap.
