The Atlanta Hawks and Milwaukee Bucks will play on Sunday in what will be their first matchup since the Bucks defeated the Hawks in six games during the Eastern Conference Finals earlier this year. Both the Bucks and the Hawks have struggled a bit out of the gate in 2021-22, but for Milwaukee that is a little bit more to do with injuries than poor play.
Atlanta ranks 28th in defensive rating this season, allowing 112 points per 100 possessions. Outside of Trae Young and John Collins, they haven't been a model of consistency offensively either.
