LOS ANGELES: The Milwaukee Bucks clinched the last remaining automatic playoff place from the NBA’s Eastern Conference on Saturday, before working up a sweat for their postseason with a 118-112 overtime victory over the Miami Heat.

The Bucks had been assured of their ninth consecutive playoff appearance following the Atlanta Hawks’ 131-128 loss to the New York Knicks earlier in the day.

The loss meant the Hawks could no longer mathematically force their way into the playoff spots and will now have to enter the four-team play-in tournament which will determine the final two postseason teams in the Eastern Conference.

That took the pressure off the Bucks in their road game against Miami, but they nevertheless produced a gritty performance to take down the Heat in overtime.
