Through 1 Quarter

The Milwaukee Bucks are ahead after one, as expected, but they'll have to keep working the rest of the way. It's still tight after one quarter, with Milwaukee leading 30-25 over the Atlanta Hawks.

The Bucks haven't had any offensive standouts so far with all players held to eight points or fewer. Point guard Trae Young has done his best for Atlanta, currently boasting 12 points (48% of their total) and two dimes in addition to four rebounds. A double-double would be Young's third in a row.

What to Know

The Milwaukee Bucks will face off against the Atlanta Hawks in a playoff game at Fiserv Forum at 8:30 p.m. ET Wednesday. Milwaukee is out to keep their 13-game home win streak alive.

The Brooklyn Nets typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday the Bucks proved too difficult a challenge. Milwaukee won 115-111 over Brooklyn in overtime. Milwaukee's power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo did his thing and posted a double-double on 40 points and 13 rebounds in addition to five assists. Antetokounmpo's night made it five games in a row in which he has scored at least 30 points.

Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers typically have all the answers at home, but on Sunday Atlanta proved too difficult a challenge. The Hawks beat the Sixers 103-96. Atlanta's shooting guard Kevin Huerter looked sharp as he had 27 points along with seven boards.

The Bucks are expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Houston Rockets April 29 easily too and instead slipped up with a 143-136. In other words, don't count Atlanta out just yet.
