The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Atlanta Hawks 110-102 on Saturday to advance to the NBA Cup Finals. The Bucks were powered by two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, who had a fantastic game, finishing with 32 points, 14 rebounds, 9 assists, and four blocks.
In 2023, the Bucks advanced to the NBA Cup semifinals before losing to the Indiana Pacers. Milwaukee, however, didn’t want to pass up another chance this time.
The Bucks went into the fourth quarter focused after a careless third quarter in which they lost a six-point lead to a one-point deficit. Despite the Hawks’ attempts to mount another comeback, they regained control midway through the period and never let it go.
With 23 seconds remaining in the game, Bucks point guard Damian Lillard made a floater to put his side up by seven points, finally breaking Atlanta’s lead. Lillard had three steals, seven assists, six rebounds, and 25 points at the end of the game.
