EDGE Analysis
The Bucks were already locked in as the Eastern Conference's No. 3 seed prior to tipoff, prompting head coach Mike Budenholzer to hold out several key contributors ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale. That allowed the Bucks to get a longer look at Bryant, who was making his NBA debut after Milwaukee signed him to a two-year deal earlier this month. The 26-year-old made a strong first impression Sunday, but it likely won't be enough for him to be featured in Budenholzer's rotation during the Bucks' first-round playoff series with the Heat.
