which gave them the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference and home-court advantage throughout the playoffs. Their opponent for the first round, the No. 8 seed Detroit Pistons, are in the postseason for the first time since 2016 and just the second time since 2009.
The Pistons backslid into the playoffs, nearly being caught by the Charlotte Hornets for the final spot in the East, but they'll be looking to make some noise behind All-Star Blake Griffin and big man Andre Drummond. The Bucks have two All-Stars themselves in Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton, plus Eric Bledsoe and Brook Lopez have turned in fantastic seasons.
