After a thrilling seven game series against the Brooklyn Nets in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, the Milwaukee Bucks continued their pursuit of the franchise's first championship in 50 years with a Eastern Conference Finals matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Trae Young's explosive 48-point performance in Game 1 in Milwaukee showed the upstart Hawks were not intimidated by the seasoned Bucks team. After Giannis Antetokounmpo gets the Bucks back on track in Game 2, Khris Middleton carries the team in Game 3 with 20 4th-quarter points on the road in Atlanta to take back home court advantage in the series.
