The series between the Bucks and the Hawks got off to a great start. Coming off of a game 7, both the teams were a bit sluggish in the defensive end. This meant an intense high scoring game. Trae Young certainly took full advantage of the lackadaisical defense as he put on a show scoring 48 points.
