1. What's next for the Milwaukee Bucks? For the third straight season, the Bucks got bounced out during the first round of the playoffs. They lost in overtime last night to the Indiana Pacers: 119-118. It was a shocking loss in the end: The Bucks were up by seven points with just 40 seconds to go in overtime and they lost it. Right after the game, Giannis got into a verbal altercation with the father of Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton. John Haliburton ran onto the court and started yelling at Giannis. He's since apologized. Meanwhile, the national story right now is all about trading Giannis.
2. According to figures from the Commerce Department, the economy is slowing. Gross domestic product, which measures all the goods and services produced in the economy, registered at an annualized rate of -0.3% in the first quarter. That's a sharp slowdown from the fourth quarter's 2.4% rate, and much worse than the 0.8% rate economists projected. Some contributing factors: Government spending is down about 5%. Some businesses chose to stockpile goods in Q4 given the uncertainty over Trump's tariff plan. A rule of thumb for defining a recession is two consecutive quarters of negative GDP.
