This will be the second time the Bucks will play the Hawks this season after hosting them at Fiserv Forum on December 4. The Hawks took down the Bucks 119-104 after Jalen Johnson and De’Andre Hunter combined for 43 points and held Milwaukee to 33.3% from beyond the arc. Giannis and Dame combined for 57, but the bench only produced 23 points, compared to the Hawks’ 48 points.
The Bucks will look to avenge not only that loss to the Hawks but their loss in last year’s loss in the semi-finals against the Indiana Pacers. This will be the first time the Hawks have made the tournament after going 1-3 last year in group play, only good for fourth place. The players on the losing team in this game will receive $102,994, while the winners will have a chance at earning $514,970 if they win the championship against the Western Conference winner on Tuesday, December 17.
