The Atlanta Hawks are giving their best push to reach the play-in and save the season. For the moment, Murray, Bogi, and the rest of the crew are doing well, but a victory over the Bucks is absolutely necessary. Meanwhile, the franchise from Wisconsin holds the second spot in the East, yet there are rivals who are after that position.

Before Betting on Milwaukee Bucks vs. Atlanta Hawks

The Milwaukee Bucks lost the last two games, allowing the Cavaliers and the Knicks to keep their chances of taking the second seed in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks have one-a-half win more than the Cavs and two Knicks, making this event in Georgia very important for Milwaukee. 

Visitors aren’t in good shape, having five wins and five losses over the recent 10 appearances, but are coming to Georgia following back-to-back losses. The first was at Fiserv Forum when the Lakers managed to triumph following an overtime, 128-124, and the second in Big Easy where New Orleans Pelicans won, 107-100.

The Hawks are in excellent shape, and it seems that they have enough quality even without Trae Young. All those who suggest that he represents a burden for the team with his individualism are getting ammo now. The most recent victory this team posted was against the Boston Celtics, 123-122, which was after the OT.

Dejuonte Murray was unstoppable, scoring 44 points, seven boards, and assists. No Celtics guard could stop the former Spurs star, who demolished his rivals. Murray had a huge help coming from Bogdan Bogdanovic. The Serb not only made a couple of very important shots but added 24 buckets.
