Hawks meet Bucks for third time in young season

The Hawks are looking to bounce back on the road vs. the Bucks after a tough loss

The Atlanta Hawks will be back on the road Monday evening for yet another matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks. It will be the Hawks’ third matchup with the Bucks in the last 3 weeks, with the teams splitting those two matchups 1-1. Most recently, Atlanta took down Milwaukee without Trae Young last week at State Farm Arena.

The Hawks come into play on Monday with all five starters averaging double-digit points, with Trae Young leading the way at 27.4 points per game despite struggling a bit in terms of efficiency. Dejounte Murray continues to excel on both ends of the floor early in his tenure with the club, and the Hawks will need their backcourt to take advantage of a short-handed Milwaukee guard rotation on Monday night.

The Bucks are a perfect 7-0 at home so far this season, so Atlanta will be looking to spoil that on their way to a win in this one. Giannis Antetokounmpo is unsurprisingly off to another MVP start to the season, and the Hawks will as always have to look for a way to slow him down. While that’s never an easy task, Atlanta has been able to hang tough the first two times around vs. the Bucks so far this season.

Bucks will have the rest advantage but will be missing some major pieces.

Hawks up 13 despite the 24-6 freethrow disparity favoring the Bucks.

Very weak technical foul - looked like Trae was talking to Bucks bench or crowd.
Will refs start calling this a tech now on ALL players?

Excellent game and building off the lead.
This ja a great accomplishment for our team! Beating the Bucks twice this season and handing them two of their three losses is amazing.
