At 37, the NBA Champion is no longer the star he once was, but he is still an important part of the team. 

Last year, Lowry helped lead the franchise to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals (they lost to the Boston Celtics). 

He had a down season this year with averages of 11.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.0 steals per contest while shooting 40.4% from the field.

In addition, the Heat were only 44-38, but they were still able to get the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference (after losing their first play-in tournament game but winning the second).

Right now, the series is 1-1, so they did a good job splitting the two games in Milwaukee.

At home, the Heat have gone 27-14 in 41 games hosted in Miami this season, so they will have a chance to make the series very interesting if they can protect their home floor.

As for the Bucks, they were the best team in the league during the regular season, with a 58-24 record.

However, they have had to play most of the series (so far) without their best player Giannis Antetokounmpo who got injured in Game 1.

He is currently questionable for Game 3.
